Only in L.A. ...

HW is one of my pals on RBR - like Becky says, he commutes and rides his bike further than most anyone else I know. Glad Bikesnob bores me, or I would've gone ballistic on his a$$.

Yea, I too just don't find bikesnob anything but... genuinely snobby and disdainful, and there's enough of that in the world. This is an example of not bothering to ascertain whether his thinking is valid - just pointing the spotlight. Who cares about the humans involved or the truth? I'm *very* glad the guy is thick-skinned.

I have considered that if/when I replace my car, I may not have to be as careful about the ol' gas mileage (tho' that was 'way back when petrol was $3. somthing), because I'd only use it for special events, so I might just get me a big ol' conversion van. So far, though, renting has been the way to go, because I can suit the vehicle to the trip.

And hey, he didn't run over cyclists in it.

I have a "Share the Road" sticker on the bike rack that is more-or-less permanently attached to the back of my SUV.
What does that make me???

What I get from snobby is that it is not the sticker as much as the SUV with a fixie on it.

My husband drives a Dodge Ram Quad Cab with a Hemi a gas guzzling hulk. Many times we have bikes on the bed heads, I guess we are okay since they are not fixies?

Of course in Texas most of the cars at bike rallies are SUVs or Trucks. This picture looks like the norm to me.

I live in Los Angeles, and notice alot of people riding their bikes. The buses here have bike racks on the front if people have to commute a long distance but still want to ride their bikes. I haven't seen a big SUV with a bike mounted on the back yet.

Really? I see mine everyday. And I see at least 3-4 on the freeway every day.

Confused?
