I am a cyclist and know many who are devout conservatives.

Don't just conclude that those who you don't like must be liberals.

But then, if you live in California...your conclusions might be correct.

Amen, RR and ditto.

It’s easy to come on here and vent your frustration and I have not problem with that. Just keep your paintbrush aimed at the few who pissed you off and not the rest of us who ride single file, obey traffic laws, and being tax-paying automobile and pickup drivers ourselves, have as much right to use the roads as anyone.

As for spandex bike shorts and colorful eye-catching jerseys, I guess some would make the same stupid comments about hunters wearing blaze orange or those wussies who refuse to play football without proper gear and pads. There is a reason for everything.

Yep - I always lower my speed and give way to cyclists - even those I deem to be unnecessarily impeding traffic. My convenience and saving a few seconds is not worth knocking someone off even if they “irritate” me. Part of the trick is to not be so thin-skinned as to be seriously incensed over the small crap that doesn’t mean anything in the big picture. Those who get outraged are immature and have no real concept of personal self control except in what they think others should exercise.
