I was driving home yesterday (can't ride at the moment) and was on a road with three lanes each way plus a median. First two lanes from the curb seemed to be moving very slow so I jumped into the far left lane. I spotted the culprit- a cyclist taking the lane. I was a little surprised that it wasn't just one lane that was slow because of the cyclist but two. I guess a lot of drivers were pulling into the second lane to get around the cyclist, slowing that lane down to a crawl as well.
From what I could tell, the cyclist was using proper vehicular cycling technique, taking the right lane and all.
Just an observation without judgment.
