    Wow - talk about a hostile wazoo load of nonsense by and large! On that board I mean!

    I notice that the car drivers keep going on about cyclists breaking rules or causing traffic. Well of course, every population has its share of idiots. The answer is obviously education, enforcement, and training.

    What they always overlook is that their is absolutely no basis, none whatsoever, for comparing the mass destruction that automobiles and the car industry have caused, continue to cause, and will cause in the future versus bikes over this entire planet? Wars, environmental destruction, urban sprawl, the destruction of communities, alientation, waste, etc etc etc. We are talking about the very real fact of destroying our habitat, our planet and only home - this isn't just somebody speeding or being annoying.

    How does this fact escape someone? Well quite easily if they are absolutely narrow minded obviously!

    What really gets me is that for many motorists safe for a cyclists = not in my way. It's painfully obvious that they have never ridden a bicycle with traffic if they really think that traveling in a bicycle lane or shoulder that is full of trash/glass/sewer grates, comes and goes without warning or reason or is mashed up against parked cars is safe.

    Dang, after reading this thread I'm afraid to go over there and see what the car drivers are saying!
