The average rode rider has spent $1,500 to $3,000 on a bike, $300 on shoes, $200 on pedals, hundreds on jerseys and shorts and lots of money on bike computers, helmet, gloves, sunglasses etc. It is a very expensive hobby and those who do it pay tons of money in taxes.

And not a penny of that goes to roads, while a huge amount of gas tax money goes to maintain, stripe, sweep, and build new bike lane miles while vehicle lane miles suffer. Also cocky bike riders, (like you) knowing they are a protected liberal minority class, completely ignore all the laws that (theoretically) apply to them the same as motorists. Let's just bring some fairness into the equation. You're not against what's common sense fairness are you? Put license plates on your bikes so the red light cameras can catch you jerks and apply the money towards offsetting the bicycle welfare money stolen from motorists.

Like I said before the hippies on bikes that are not wearing helmets violate every traffic rule there is. However, people on road bikes for the most part obey every traffic law there is. If we don’t we can end up dead very quickly.

Go ahead and put license plates on bikes and red light cameras to catch bikes going through traffic signals however, we will also need to install GPS on every car to monitor speed. Each time you drive your car over the speed limit the Police will send you a ticket.

But then again, you are in Oregon where the state already plans to place GPS in everyone’s car. I live in Texas where that will never happen.

Good Luck with your Big Brother.
