Here we go! This is why more people are getting killed on bikes. They are special, protected snowflakes whom it is everyone elses responsibility to look out for. Notice in the aforementioned comment how ANYONE who hits a cyclist should spend years in prison, regardless of who's fault it is or how stupid the cyclist was acting? This is the mindset of a dangerous cyclist. This is the sort that gives the rest a bad name. This is the type that will crowd a car on a narrow road with the righteous battle-cry of "I have the right-of-way!" Never mind that there is a bike path thirty feet away. I like to ride a bicycle but I do it carefully and in places that are well suited for biking.
There was an intentional hit by a driver on a cyclist, killing the 20 year old just 20 miles from here. The driver was charged with manslaughter. He was trying to take outTWO bicylists - the first one dodged the murderous fool.
Obviously people with such murderous views about cyclists deserve punishment by imprisonment - This one will be.. People with the views that bicycles should not be on the road are virtually all LARD AZZes who are envious that someone could be healthy enough to use a bicycle for miles and miles as transportation, recreation... Snowflakes? as one of the lowlifes here in this thread put it? I would whip your azz up one side and down the other if you try your ILLEGAL BULL MANURE around me and I get the chance. You people expressing this were quite obviously ALSO just not raised right.
and Colorado Doug, you had to change the context of my statement to fit your pathetic narrative - SPEAKING OF PROTECTED SNOWFLAKES.
