    I'm not a fan either. As much as it's true that being in the car sometimes does feel like being in a cage, the term seems to encourage an "us vs. them" mentality rather than respectfully SHARING the road with one another.

    Crankin' - I know that exact intersection (very well). This winter, I had the same experience you described, but I was ON MY BIKE! And guess what? They still didn't move - spread across the entire intersection, and I had to go into the opposite lane to make my right hand turn around them.

    BTW - I hope there weren't any NEBC jerseys in that group .

    No NEBC jerseys or CRW... and I was glad of that.
    They were green and blue jerseys, with some black. Not sure which club this is; Metrowest Bike Club?
