Boy did you hit on one of my major pet peeves. Bike riders on the pavements can be described in two words: Candy Ass.

All bicyclists riding on the sidewalk should get a ticket for doing so.
Get a helmet and ride in the street, where you are supposed to; otherwise,
I might accidentally knock you down if you're on the sidewalk near me.
Riders cowering from autos by riding on the sidewalk do nothing to
affirm that bicyclists have every right to ride in the street as
automobiles, and puts often unsuspecting walkers at risk.
When your parents told you not to ride your bike in the street, they were
wrong.
Get a life. Get a bike. And ride in the street.
