It is no wonder that bicycle advocates have such a poor reputation for credibility and rationality.
This is not Chainguard, the necessity for being anti-bikeways is not a given here and as far as I am concerned you have failed to make any semblance of a rational argument toward that point here as it always seems to breakdown to ad hominem attacks, just as you have done here with Genec.
In regards to your statement in bold, please look in the mirror, the call for credibility and rationality is my point as well. If you have a problem with an equally crass counter-argument that proves that you have failed to provide any facts what so ever, then don't start down that road.
