Don't let the cops see you bike on sidewalks or they'll give you a ticket because you're supposed to ride in the roadway (got this ticket 7 years ago when I was a student). But don't let them see you bike on the road or they'll give you a ticket for impeding traffic (got this ticket a month later biking on bear boulevard, literally right next to JQH arena). Basically don't let the cops know you have a bike unless it's in your $70,000 pickup or on your kuat bike rack.
