Seems as tho respect for our heroes is not in fashion here on FR.

Sad any time at all, but particularly during this season.

I wouldn’t have used the same words, but riding a bike is dangerous even in the light of day. Let alone at closing time of the bars...

Biking is dangerous on roads, only compounded by darkness, w/e evenings when people are drunk, wet, crowded roads, bad parts of town..

My town, I kid you not. They put up “share the road” signs on both sides of the (very busy) street along with painted markers designating shared lanes, each sign is spaced by only about 100 yards, goes on for like, two miles each way. It looks insane, it is insane..

I complained about the waste of money, and that only a sucide inclined person would ride their bike on “that” busy street. I got a very smarmy response from the city, stating that bikers pay taxes too.

So, guess what they did? Shortly after my written complaint, they replaced every single sign, with a similars sign of different color??!!!
