>>If you don’t pay the tax, we tax payers, who own the roads, may permit you to use the roads when we tax payers are not on them, but you don’t get right of way.

Do you really think that adult cyclists don’t drive cars? Or trucks? We pay gas taxes too. And since you’re allocating road space and rights by the amount of tax paid, does that give semis the right to hit SUVs, who have the right to hit sedans, who have the right to hit subcompacts, who have the right to hit motorcycles?

Trucks actually do more damage to the roads than cars, more than their increased taxes pay.

So it is a charity for trucks to be permitted to use the roads, just as it is a charity for cyclists.

Don’t like it? build your own roads, with a special bicyle tax, or double your truck tax.

You aren't paying gas taxes while riding your $5000 bicycles, wearing $200 worth of spandex, with your $100 toe clip shoes on. Meanwhile in the peoples republic of Portland, OR automobile lane miles have been converted to bike only lanes using...GAS TAX road funds.

There's a simple solution, GPS trackers on bicycles that track mileage and charge taxes accordingly. Either that or a $10 tax on every single bicycle tire. I mean, share the road, share the expense right?
