20 mph, 3-4 ft into the lane... this guy was doing EXACTLY what is urged of transporation cyclists at a truly fast pace...

Folks, cyclists have a legal right to use virtually every single road in all 50 states. In fact, historically, cyclists were among the ones who fought to have the first roads paved... The fabric of "traffic" is wide and colorful and includes things that move slowly including, in OHio at least, Amish buggies, slow moving commercial vehicles and bicycles... get used to it, get over it... the physical threats posted here are of far more concern to me than slowing people down before they can pass a cyclist. The slightest nudge from a passing motorist can KILL a cyclist...

Not according to some of these studly armed anti motorvehicle nazis. If you even think of bumping their bike they will reach in their fannie-packs so fast, pull out a .357 and.... BLAM! Right between the headlights!

One exception being the Interstate Highway System, of course. At any rate, FRetards will not be de turd by de facts.

(Note to all readers: Not all FReepers are FRetards, only the FRetarded ones. If you're offended by the label, you just might be one. ;O)
