The sidewalks are really dangerous where I am, where they are super uneven, have “artistic” curves, and trees that are overhanging really low so like will hit my body.
I go max 15 MPH on my escooter and if I hear a ding ding I jump onto the sidewalk and go a bit slower until you guys pass, since I’m slower and can dismount easier it only makes sense for me to make room. I figure as long as I make room it “shouldn’t” be a problem.
But just wondering if there are any bike riders that are just like shaking their fist at escooter riders.
EDIT: USA!
Do you have a computer telling you that speed or are you just making a guess? Because I find it unrealistic to be +30 kph on flat ground with a mountain bike for 30 minutes.
I say this because I have a gravel bike and can only keep +30kph for long periods if I’m on a slight incline and I’m pedaling with a purpose (not full sprint, but you wouldn’t see a commuter pedal that hard)
On average people in commuting bikes will most likely be at around 15kph, low 20s on descents.
On descents it easy, I do up to 50km/h.
