LOL... All the time dude. I'm a VC (Vehicular cyclist) biker. In other words, I consider myself (correctly) as a vehicle, and therefor have both the rights AND responsibilities as stated in the rules of the road.

Can't answer for him, but I always do (although I haven't learned the wheelstand I can stay upright motionless for at least a second or two without having to uncleat).

And back in '94 I compiled the state laws regarding cycling, created a flyer detailing them and gave it to the "local" bicycle club (the largest in the country and a bit leftie). Pretty soon the flyers started showing up on counters in all the bike shops around here.

But the lib cyclists still ignore the laws.

Bicyclists obey the rules of the road far, FAR more faithfully than drivers of cars. There is your answer to your wise-guy question. Now what is your point?

Don't buzz me. I ride armed.
