I have no problem with people disagreeing with my POV, but I object to immature name-calling. (This thread is discussing an article I wrote.) I post here under my own name, and the article is in my name so I take it personally.
Well good for you Dave. It is you, Dave, not I, who equates the phrase "self appointed Safety Nanny" and the rants of same as being an "expert" and/or consultant giving "expert" advice in their field of expertise. In this case, the field apparently is hectoring and badgering the Other Cyclists who don't share your "credentials" for Cycling Correctness.
