Cyclist or pedestrian?

[Chalmeristen]

Ok, when u run down the sidewalk on your bocks, what lane should u use.
The pedestrian-lane or the cyclist-lane
I find none of them really work.. 
Not really that important but kinda fun to consider... 

Have fun and watch out for the old ladies with dogs

The line down the middle that separates them

Pedestrian. I dont see it much different to someone running.

[evil mark 61]

yeah, plus the distinctive lack of wheels that would qualify you as a cycle

[Dark Knight]

Both, either, if I'm over taking  

[Chalmeristen]

Sprog: Good one! 
EM 61: I was thinking more in terms of speed than wheels...
Locky: The thing was that I had to pass a lot of "regular" runners in my way 

All together I don't really care it just crossed my mind

maybe we should create a bock with wheels....then you wouldnt have to do any work at all woohoo

[Becky]

someone asked me once what the legal status was of bockers using the roads and the pavements. any ideas?
i think i told him that noone had ever told me i wasnt allowed on either!

[mikey]

well are there any laws at all on these things? the only time i have been asked to move on was in a shopping mall because of 'health and safety'...now i couldnt argue with that seeing as though i had only had em for about 2 days

i would say we are still classed as pedestrians...

I'm sure we are in the same category as skateboarding.  If I'm bocking in an area that doesn't allow skateboards, I fully expect to be asked to take it somewhere else.

[GladHippo]

i always thought that, the sign says no skateboards, cyclist and rollerblades, i guess we can go where-ever we want, whenever we cant untill someone says otherwise, then we know for the future, maybe someone should set up a topic on places they have been told they cant go or is there already one?

I really think that as a whole, we should be respectful of the people and surroundings.  It's obvious that we aren't causing damage, or causing harm to anyone.  Provided we maintain that, it really shouldn't be a problem to use them anywhere.  Keep that in mind, and be respectful.  I don't think anyone really has reported collisions with pedestrians or property damage.  Lets keep it that way people!!!

We want to be able to roam freely.  That's the appeal of wearing them in the first place.  The more that people realize and understand this, the better off we will all be.

 We def  pedestrians   Got told by the cops  'your nothing like sk8boarders or BMX cant see any trouble with you'

[mikey]

lol its also funny walking past coppers...then as you pass hear them whisper 'omg we should get them! would make the job so much easier'

i walked past a coppers car once and saw the two men inside...they had faces like 'hmmm what can i get him done for?.....crap dont think i can!' :D:D
