I ride helmetless on the road, and I avoid cyclepaths, as I'm far less scared of car drivers pulling something sketchy than I am of rollerblader-dogwalker-strollers pulling something sketchy.
I also live in California, where case law has determined that government is never responsible for injuries that occur off the road and on a bike path.
Additionally, it is flat-out unethical to ride faster than 10mph if you're weaving through pedestrian foot-traffic.
The auto lobby loves cycle infrastructure. It gets cyclists off the road.
