Please share this advice with your fellow bike racing enthusiasts. I reside on Cape Cod, which has a rather famous and busy bike trail. My kids and I have been almost run over, and scolded by spandex wearing weekend Tour de France warriors several times. If you want to race, stay off bike trails.

There are droves of "dentists" riding $10k road bikes in $2k worth of gear pretending to be on the Roubaix and acting the total asshole on a multi-use trail. As an avid cyclist I make it a point not to ride the same bikes or get all kitted out because I don't want to be associated with that crowd. I also observe the rules of the path...enough to make one stand out.
