Question for someone with some legal knowledge.  I was with my kids on
a tandem - riding my bike down what I assumed was a public road at the
Rio center (a town center shopping center). Because I kept going when
a security guard yelled at me, the security guards went nutz,
sourounded us and called the police, police came, and rather then me
trying to explain the law to the police and getting arrested, I just
listened to the police and left.

1) are through roads on "town centers" public or private roads?
2) if its a public road, then I assume I can ride my bike on it.
3) how would I go about informing management they are wrong (assuming
I dont cool down and just let it drop) - the security guards were jerk-
offs, it sure would be good to prove them wrong and make them revise
their policy ;-)
