I'm not sure what you are expecting here. Do you have a question? Do you just need to vent? Your Google Map link does not make or break your case, it is meaningless in this context. As I see it you were pulled over mainly for ignoring the earlier admonition to move over. I'm guessing that you are not a racial minority. The motorist equivalent of your style of riding is the driver whose car has no mechanical impediment and there is no meteorological situation requiring an excess of caution but they put their hazard lights on and proceed down the road ten miles an hour below the speed limit because they don't want anything to happen to their precious car. Most of the time you get away with acting like that but every once in awhile law enforcement calls you on it. New York and New Jersey simply cannot allow cyclists to hold vehicles on major highways to have to crawl along at cyclist speeds. Come to Portland if you want to continue riding like that.
