As was stated, yes it is. Further to that, there are designated bike paths and lanes... If you are not on a bike path or bike lane, you are considered traffic and are supposed to bike on the road with other traffic.
I'm okay with people biking on the sidewalk... mostly kids though. I understand it's scary to bike on the road with the traffic. If only the cars on the road also understood that...
