I worry about children dogs cats wild critters school buses 30 miles per hour. Safety First. Then enjoying city forest trails and biking will become a first class event. Our city has marked bike paths Not around city forest. Not evens path (sidewalk) to be able to safely enjoy our forest! Slow Down.
