  The difference is safety, not the law.  If it were safe for you to drive
100mph down MOPAC then go right ahead.  But it is not.  If it is safe to 
ride on the sidewalk then there is no reason not to.

  Oh, isn't that cute.  It sounds like you are running out of things to
say because you are starting to accuse everyone who is expressing his personal
opinions of name-calling.

for bikes in every case.  Where they are inappropriate, I do not feel any
shame in breaking them.
