And when was it ever illegal to ride a bike on a sidewalk?


It is in a good many places, unless it's a designated multi-use path. For good reason, too, given that riding a bike on the sidewalk is pretty dangerous to pedestrians unless you're going so slowly that you might as well not be bothering with the bike.

Okay, I just looked it up in my area and it's legal where I live (Florida).
http://flbikelaw.org/category/sidewalks-crosswalks/

316.2065 (9) A person propelling a vehicle by human power upon and along a sidewalk, or across a roadway upon and along a crosswalk, has all the rights and duties applicable to a pedestrian under the same circumstances.

316.2065 (10) A person propelling a bicycle upon and along a sidewalk, or across a roadway upon and along a crosswalk, shall yield the right-of-way to any pedestrian and shall give an audible signal before overtaking and passing such pedestrian.

Bicycles can be legally operated on all Florida sidewalks and crosswalks unless a local ordinance prohibits it. When on a sidewalk, the operator is operating a vehicle and must use helmets and lights when required, and is subject to the DUI laws. Otherwise, the operator has the rights and duties of a pedestrian, but must yield to all pedestrians

Well, I haven't been aware about "316.2065 (10)" (I'll keep that in mind for now on) but I don't have a helmet but I do use my Android phone's camera as a flashlight during sunset.
