I got the sidewalk comment from a carload of adolescent JAMs on Saturday after work. A woman and I were riding two abreast, downhill on a four laner, taking up the right lane, and pulled up to a stoplight. kids honked behind us, I waved and gave the driver the stink-eye. then the passenger started ranting about 'there's the sidewalk' I rebutted. quite loudly, 'we're allowed to ride on the road. LEARN THE RULES.'
yeah, JAMs and the misconceptions. its not our inferiority complex, despite the cackles of the dogmaticly addled 'vc'- its the lack of respect from the JAMs.
