On my commute every day I have the option of dieing on Rt. 7
or riding the sidewalk for about 1/2 a mile and arriving at work
alive. My job really sux so sometimes I have to think about it
but so far I have opted for the latter.
The people walking I pass I smile to and we exchange pleasantries.
Everyone is happy with the friendly acknowledgement and
say 'Hi' and 'Good Morning' to me too when I ride by them.
I wish other cyclists were as happy and freindly as the peds.
How can people be this happy about being put in such terrible,
mortal danger by someone who is is flagrantly disregarding
the rules designed to keep society safe from such ne'er-do-wells ?
