Everything is racism
Except hating whitey
“take-no-prisoners cycling advocates”
They could’ve made the case without the anti-white idiocy.
I hate cycling advocates.
Thanks Obama
Bike Lanes are BS. Those lanes are needed for cars, trucks and buses. Want to ride a bike. Take your chances.
I’m confused ... I thought riding bikes was going to save the planet from globull warming. Now, it’s bad that people are doing it?
Dammit, I got Racism again. Back to the programming cells...
(I must write, 1000 times, "Bicycling inconveniences are important enough for Racism. Violent crimes are not.")
“Same road, same rules!” the bike Nazis who ride four abreast and block the entire lane love to scream at cars, until it comes to waiting at a red light. Then the bikers feel that red lights are to be treated as a suggestion.
I once came across a bicycle tour on a narrow mountain road. It was impossible to pass them since they took up the entire lane and with the curves it was impossible to know if there was on coming traffic - They thought it was funny as a line of cars began to form.
Is it a wonder that some non-cyclist don’t like these idiots.
Are NY cyclists like the west coast ones who believe that traffic signs, traffic lights and pedestrian right of way laws don’t apply to them? (Like I need to ask)
No these yobs are commies. They turned SF streets into a very dangerous place when they are out. These are the ELF fans, the mad vegans, the pasty white leftists that are occupy
I am not against Bike Lanes per se.... but I am against turning a full car lane into a bike lane on a busy street that has ZERO bike traffic.
They have been on a kick here in Pgh for a while with these, and some get used frequently, and I am okay with that... most probably see no more than 10 or 20 bikes a DAY....
How long before skiing and golf get this treatment..?
So, is it okay to run over white cyclist in NYC now?
But take extra care they are white.
The fact of the matter is that pedestrians have always been victims of out-of-control bicyclists in NYC - whether “people of color” messengers, “people of color” delivery boys or insane white guys and gals. Now with all these bike lanes (which just made more auto congestion), it is even more dangerous as they ride against traffic and through red lights. I despise them!
About 10 years ago, my company was working on the repair of a bridge. Part of the deck had to be removed and repaired. Part of it was over a bike lane. The City demanded that we keep the bike lane open except when we working above it (and provide a marked detour when closed). We put some barricades across the lane when we started breaking out the deck over the bike lane.
Then a bicyclist went right around the barricades and zipped under the bridge as the stuff was falling. Then a second one did it. So we put out a bunch of other barricades all the way down to the creek. It wasn’t 10 minutes before we got a call from the City to complain that they were receiving complaints frombicyclists. I told them to come to the project and watch the bikers ignore safety. PS: The City also said that they received complaints of us getting “dust” on the bicyclists.
Setting aside the gratuitous “white-bros” snark, I have no problem with cyclists who try to be as considerate to others as they want others to be to them.
But I have no use for the “I’m better than you because I ride a bike” types decked out in tight shorts and fancy helmets. In particular, in my morning commute, I typically drive a stretch along a normally-busy two-lane road, with a curb-protected exclusive bike lane that effectively removes any possibility of a passing lane. And most mornings I’ll encounter a pack of a dozen or so of these clowns, riding side-by-side on the traffic lane, ignoring the bike lane altogether. Granted it’s 5:30 am or so, and the traffic is light, but they still impede traffic flow, so far as I can tell just because they can.

Appalachians up to Allegheny mtns.... no bike lanes. But plenty ad infinitum cyclists who foolishly ride side by side in a lane- aligned with normal auto traffic.
come over a hill and “there they are” 5 across in the lane. Idiotic- and they claim they have ROW— they don’t. Several car/cycle accidents and the cyclists did not do well.
Here’s a tip for these morons— the road is NOT yours (in fact unless you drove in a car to get to your “trip”, you have paid zero in matching road taxes). Travel in single lanes- with last in line with a prominent BRIGHT Red strobe flasher- and each of you wear reflective gear— DOT greenbrite. cyclists at a minimum are a hazard to automobile driving. Period.
Did the author assume race and gender? Hmmm....Is that allowed?
Apparently after reading the headline, it appears that Cuozzo is a self hating white racist.
Imagine a similar headline about coddling blacks and crime.
