There are other reasons to ticket or warn them. What we *should* change in the municipal code is the rule that says it is perfectly fine to ride a bicycle on the *sidewalk*. See 11-4.2 in the miniciple code on the city web site for more detail. Bikes should follow the same laws as automobiles. At the very least you should not be allowed to ride a bike on a sidewalk where a bike lane exists. I agree no change to the code is needed to stop kids from skating in a parking garage.
