Letter: Cyclists spark pedestrian concerns

Re: “Sidewalk cyclists deserve zero tolerance,” June 6.

If anything Allen Garr understates the problem. When I go for my daily walk in Kits, provided it isn’t raining, I am constantly avoiding cyclists riding on the sidewalk.  

As a senior I am seriously at risk if I get knocked down by a cyclist.  I have never seen or heard of a cyclist being ticketed for riding on the sidewalk or any other infraction.  

Unfortunately in Vision Vancouver we have a civic government that cares about two groups, cyclists and developers. No one else.
