If you have ever cycled along Santa Monica’s oceanside bike path as I do three or four times a week, you would know that the “Pedestrian Path” signs that Shearer makes fun of are indeed a necessity.
Even with the signs, there are many pedestrians walking on the bike path. They have no idea how dangerous it is to be there. I have the scarred knees, shins, elbows and hands to show that a bicycler/pedestrian accident is much harder on me than them.
