Bad assumption on your part - The risk is from the clash of pedestrians
and cyclists. The elderly, hearing/vision impaired, young children, the
able bodied and alert adults all co-mingle on the boardwalk.
A cyclist can be the most alert professional possible and still have
someone step/run into his path and be injured.
The same reasoning is behind the rules prohibiting cyclists from public
sidewalks.
