I've gotten so I can ride on that 4" wide white line on the edge of the road for miles at a time, because there is no paved shoulder, only soft sand to the right. A 6' wide path would be like a 4 lane highway! There can't be too many of those around, are there? I know in England I've seen wide "multi use paths" but they have a dividing line down the middle, with painted "Walk" on one side and "Ride" on the other. The bike riders get VERY pissy if you walk on the bike side of the line!
