I will also probably be paying a lawyer to give me the skinny either way as walking any distance is not my favorite exercise, bicycling is far easier on the knees. I do not need any info on Philadelphia, that is abundantly clear, tyranny rules the streets there from my reading. Thanks for any information regarding legality of bicycle carry.
With regards: Is a bicycle a vehicle in the state of PA? http://www.bicycleaccess-pa.org/ (short answer is: YES) and they are required to follow the same traffic laws as motorized vehicles -with exceptions.

Hawk,
