That's all fine and dandy in the land of Perfect, but there are a lot of motorists out there that judge our whole group by the actions of a few.

Now I don't just go yelling stuff at random cyclists on the side of the road. If I see someone commiting an act of stupidity right in front of me, damnit, he's gonna hear about it. No, I'm not gonna swerve at him or something like that, but if I let him on his way without some verbal whiplash, he's going to think he did nothing wrong and continue to muck up the streets.
