I still don't understand how he is giving cyclists a bad name. I don't remember electing this ****** as an emissary of the cycling world. He's some knucklehead who happens to be in a bike get over it.

From the article:

"According to police, a female guest at Best Western Soldiers Field Tower and Suites, 401 Sixth St. S.W., had used the swimming pool and was showering when she heard a door open about 3:10 p.m. Sunday. She saw a naked man. He ran from the room, pulled on swim trunks, got on a bicycle and rode through the hallways."

Man, you just can't make this stuff up. Nice find! (btw, it wasn't me - I swear I've never even been to Rochester MN!) :D

Heh, good story.


"A Rochester man who fled through the hallway of a local motel on his bicycle was tackled by a Michigan man after hitting the man and his father."

Does that mean it's now okay for cyclists to stop and detain motorists who hit us?
