My apologies

[gew0419]

I was just sitting here reading the story of Tim O'Donnell. It really has me thinking about how I ride. Tim and his friends were doing everything right, but as my tag line says I often go for the exception rather than the rule. I do this on my bike sometimes, too. I run stop signs when I think I can get away with it, I push the envelope when I am in traffic, I try to force my "rights" as a cyclist. I want to apologize to my brothers and sisters on two (and three) wheels. I have, at times, given cyclists a bad name and not represented us very well on the road. To all of you here I say, "I am very sorry and will work very hard, from now on, to be a good example of what a responsible rider should be."
And I will do what I can to help promote responsible riding among our community or riders.
Please help me in this.
Thank You

Thank you. We're all a little guilty sometimes, but at least you're trying.

Thank you for deciding that the future will be different for you. What you are doing is difficult, but worthwhile.

Ok I'm guilty too, I admit to running a couple stop signs yesterday in the 8 Lakes ride. Not a good thing especially when the younger folks are riding with and watching you. Apologies from me also.
