I don't think that would work with the bike cops around here. They're pretty fit.


I basically follow Idaho law around here. That, and follow the philosophy in the haiku in my sig file. Once or twice I've crossed against a red light and noted the next car down was a cop. So far, so good; no one has stopped me. We don't have that much of a problem with scofflaw cyclists violating the right of way of motor vehicles, though, so I don't think most cops even notice cyclists.
