Multiple cycle paths exist in the area offering literally hundreds of miles to explore. Beach side bike path runs from Newport Beach to Sunset beach. Newport Beach to Riverside and beyond via the Santa Ana River trail. Newport Back Bay loop. Newport Beach to Irvine Park via the Mountains to the Sea trail. Newport Beach to San Diego via PCH. So many options, no one is being unfairly limited.
Absolutely no valid reason to ride through the breeding area for the Western Snowy Plover which has threatened status under the US Endangered Species act.
Sounds fair on the beach part. How's the bike parking situation (re: confiscating anything locked to public property)? Are there regularly spaced places to lock up bikes?
From the article they are being ridden in protected areas including dunes and bird breeding areas.
