Please do not ban bikes on this treasure we have as the answer is to have each person, e.g. walker, runner, cyclist, reach-out with the proper courtesy when necessary. I ride multiple times, each week, very early in the A.M. and have little and, or no problem with other people using the river walk. In fact, many of the "regulars" at this time of day have learned to expect each other and acknowledge each with a friendly, "watch out behind you", "have a good week-end" "can some of this heat, or cold", etc. Bike speed should not be an issue if managed properly. Moreover, proper manners re walker and runners, i.e. not wearing head phones / I Pods, as well as acknowledging cyclists after being alerted of "watch out behind you" should be standard.
