It has been wonderful that the Causeway Bridge now provides easy pedestrian and bike access between the Island and mainland. While I understand why bikes are not allowed on the walking paths, it is unfortunate that there is not a safer bike path than being on the shoulder of the road. The main bridge is not bad since the shoulder is about 12 feet wide, but the three smaller bridges have about a 4-foot shoulder width, which puts a biker about 4 feet from trucks going 60 mph.
