some my Q's is, I plan on getting an motor on my bike so I can ride to work its be 6 mile something.
am living in Omaha city (west side) in morning most cars going east. am going west not that many cars but yes there are some.
am still fear about riding the bike on the street!!! there are some good wide side walks to my work.
what would you say should I take the side walk?? there are some hills I would need this motor to help me get up.
on the side walk there are no ones walking it any way..

have not talk to an cop yet, but if I did... I would have to say would you want me in street where I cannot hear the car horn? and fear car not watching the street than text on the cell phone.. yeah there alot people playing with cell phones

on the side walk I CAN watch for people and whatever right of way.?

by way yes I am deaf..

just need your in put thoughts. to be safety...
this is going be my summer ride and PARK THE TRUCK GAS HOG.


You know? In my opinion... I would rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6!

I personally ride the **** out of any side walk I can find! Of course there are not many people on TN sidewalks (unless you are down town Nashville, but traffic is slow there also, so road riding is safer).

Also, my hearing is going down hill fast at the age of 32.

Just me two cents
Nick
