Well, obey the rules of the road. No tandem riding, stopping at red lights and stop signs and using turn signals. Maybe then you and others will get a little respect.
And stop riding in the middle of the road at rush hour holding traffic to 15 MPH when it would go 40 MPH - and when there is a perfectly good bicycle path - right next to the road - fer chrissakes.
"No tandem riding..."
It's legal in virtually ever state. Besides, it makes no difference, given the law of physics stating that two objects cannot occupy the same space.
No, I'm not gonna ride on the white line so you can "slide thru" at 55 mph, missing me by inches.
The Revised Code of the state of Washington (RCW) permits riding two abreast on the road. IMHO a bad rule, but there it is.
But I agree: bicycle-riders and cyclists alike ought to know and obey the law. I wish the police were more aggressive at ticketing violators...
