Presumably such cyclists don't give a dang about WAGs and meaningless statistics about relative "risk" that are unquestioned by some individuals on Internet discussion groups
I may have misconstrued you as a "sidewalks Only" type of guy, and you in turn mistook me for a VC hardliner. You can't be all bad, since, like me, you use quotation marks a lot. I think it's exceptable in rare instances to go on the sidewalk, but if most of your riding is on them, you've got problems.
