Same for NH.

Bikes are only feasible for cities.

Ignoring them is a good indication that the democrats are not really interested in green anything, but only about control.

Too hot, but looks like a great place to ride, nice rollers. 25 miles is a good distance, especially if there’s a good ice cream shop or cold beer in town.

Definitely***not*** a bike friendly area.

But.....Some urban and suburban areas are. My city is one of them.

The second picture reminded me of my dad complaining about people going slow up a hill where there was a no passing zone, and then fast down the hill when passing was allowed. Most bikers are the worst because they never think of pulling over. Most farmers did.

SE Idaho is ideal for mountain bikes. Lots of mountains. Paved and unpaved roads. The last week has been in the high 90s. Roads outside of main city thoroughfares don't get plowed in Winter. You live with a snow/ice floor for weeks.

My most versatile "bike" is a Suzuki DR650. It's quite capable of transporting my 65 year old hide to places I shouldn't go. 55 MPG on regular 87 octane fuel. I use only ethanol free gas. The other bikes in the garage are being "rehabbed" to repair fuel system damage caused by ethanol added to the fuel.

The “no room for bikes” wouldn’t stop some of the spandex wearing,”it’s my God given right to obstruct traffic” bike riders...
