I’m thinking the answer to this is thumbtacks. Lots and lots of thumbtacks.

As an avid cyclist that tells at least a dozen Gomers a year to read their drivers manual (as soon as they learn how to read) to understand that I don’t have to be on the sidewalk, I must say that these people are a$$holes.

Meanwhile, defense attorneys rushed to rescue rioters from consequences. The cyclists had engaged in "protected First Amendment activity," they said. Then the motorists should engage in more protected first amendment rights of physically clearing the streets of all obstructions!

I’m thinking “accidentally on purpose” opening the car door at JUST the right time... like when one of those idiots is riding by.

Easy there, I’m a cyclist who rides to work and I’m all in favor of putting more people on bikes.
That said, anarchist tactics are inappropriate and taint the whole cycling community with the antics of a few, the one-percenters.
Think before you do something malicious that could endanger someone’s life, we are not all a-holes out there. The crash you cause could injure somebody who is just trying to get around without putting any money in the pockets of OBL and the Islamonutballs.

Just as long as you don’t put thumbtacks around my bike, I’m fine with it. I’m sick of these pretentious bikers in this area. They make the rest of us look bad.

LOL !
Cyclists should be forced to use the sidewalks . They have no business being in the road if there are no bike lanes available .

Cyclists sometimes scratch or beat on cars, taunt or spit at motorists, and come close to running down pedestrians.I'm thinking aluminum baseball bats would be a good non-gunpowder solution to this problem.

Nevertheless, police maintain a hands-off stance, acting as little more than bystanders. Why!?
Bicyclists are--supposedly--required to obey all the same traffic laws as those driving automobiles. Why are they given a free pass?
