Bayview Pixie Debra Kuchme gets it right when she says you can’t see a sidewalk cyclist coming up behind you. Bike riders who think they can accurately guess where a pedestrian is going to be as they ride up from the rear are dreaming. Such is the gist of the City News report on sidewalk cycling on Bayview Ave. and elsewhere. Jon Burnside (Ward 26) advises riders who don’t feel safe on the road to take a side street or get off their bikes. Toronto has yet to address this delicate bicycle issue with signs that remind riders they are breaking the law on the sidewalk. But then, it doesn’t post no U Turn signs either.
