    I started riding on the road and was promptly rewarded with a nail in my tire. I’ll stick to my area’s multi use path.

    Though admittedly if the speed limit and design limit are is 35mph or less I don’t mind the road since I’m on an ebike.

      To be fair, I’ve been rewarded more than once with a nail in my tire for driving my car on the road too.

      But agree, it sucks and is good reason to use multiuse paths where they exist.
