How Do We Feel About Motorcycles on the Sidewalk?
You may already know this, but in San Francisco, it's illegal for anyone over 13 years old to ride a bicycle on the sidewalk. But what about motorcycles?

Well, motorcycles being motor vehicles, not only can you not ride them on sidewalks, you can't park them there either. That didn't stop blue Honda here from parking on Pierce near Haight yesterday, though -- an infraction that elicited the following reaction from an unknown note-leaver:
Hey Asshole, This is not a fucking parking space! You suck!
Well readers? How do we feel about this? Do the two-wheelers of the world need to stay on the streets where they belong? Or is there enough room on the sidewalks for all of us?
