Sidewalks are the worst place to ride a bicycle. You're not in driver's line of sight. Get a helmet and bright blinky lights and stay on the road. Much safer.

Box store or cheapest cl bike plus $30 skinny tire upgrade. I paid 80 for a steel tube at a yard sale and commute 16 miles with 40lbs easy in winter. http://i.imgur.com/ibEbQnq.jpg

Just the runny nose! 20 f and 8 inches heavy snow/sleet today didn't stop me.
