I cycle in rural-ish Prairieville. Narrow blacktop with no bike lanes (or shoulders on most roads - this is old swampland).
Want to really
irritate motorists? Pass 'em on the shoulder so that you can get up to the front. If you want respect on the road, ride respectfully (and lawfully). Unless you're racing, who
cares if you're slowed down a bit?
