Here in Michigan it's illegal for them to ride on the sidewalk.

Are you sure about this? I've biked on sidewalks my entire life, and never have I gotten even the remotest of hints that such a law existed.
Nonetheless, I see this all the time in my little neck of the 'burbs. I suppose its good that there are so many bikers, but that doesn't change the fact that they can be damn irritating.
My problems are compounded by the fact that generally these people are:
1) Out at night
2) Black
3) Wearing dark clothing
4) Missing vital bike reflectors
5) Swerving all over the road like an addled drunk
In fact, a couple weeks ago I nearly ran over a kid on my way back from work.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
