Have skated trails all over the U.S. and several other countries. If a trail is suitable for biking then its suitable for skating. I have been skating since 1968 so controlling speed and stopping for me is not an issue. I really believe we can get along just fine with other trail users.

He said I had to get off my 26" unicycle and I was prohibited to ride in any Mountain View Parks. I called up parks and rec and spoke his supervisor. The supervisor Mike sees no ordinance banning unicycling at the park since it is a one wheel cycle without a motor. I will continue my riding at Cuesta.
Yes, I am upset. Unicycling is no more dangerous to the public health than riding a much faster going bike.

I recently began riding an electric skateboard as a means to get out of the office and help lower my stress levels. While these boards are technically a skateboard, they have built in brakes and will automatically come to a quick stop if the rider falls. The concerns of having the board go flying out of control and injuring someone are completely unfounded.

It is an excellent modular form of transportation - e.g. can be stored in my car, taken on Caltrain, BART, and buses. Finally I think it easier to stop / get off than a bicycle. One can jump off a skateboard and stop it dead. Can you do that with a bicycle? Skateboards are also limited by speed. Please Mountain View, follow the lead of your neighbors and legalize skateboarding on the Stevens Creek Trail. Thank You. - Steve Hays
