You're a fool for thinking riding on the sidewalk in MD is illegal. Look it up. And, hello, $4 a gallon! "What little" is saved on gas?
What's with all the jealousy of those of us on two wheels?
Riding a bike isn't necessarily "socialism". Do you even know what that word means? Facists and patriots have ridden and ride bikes, too.

You are a fool to bike on the roads around here. The little you save on gas isn't worth your life. And why is it illegal to ride on the sidewalk which is the safest place? Stick to the trails for biking.

Nope, bicycles are (still) for pedestrians except in the case of emergency. Either bike on the road or not at all.
