That's right, the law doesn't say "as clost to the right as possible" as he probably knew; I got the feeling he was giving me advice...there seems to be a feeling out there by some cyclists and most drivers that we bicyclists should always be concerned with trying to stay out of the way of cars, let them pass etc... But I know the law and have a copy of it with me at all times if someone wants to get serious with me while I'm following it on OUR city streets... "stay as close to the right as practicable". I see many "cyclists" such as this guy riding around the lake etc..but it's so rare to see high dollar cyclists commuting on bikes in this city. And of course nothing against those who don't want to ride on these streets... ...just lay off the free advice. I've given it plenty of thought, trust me. and I follow all of the laws, signalling, stopping at lights and stop signs etc...

Strange how this "cyclist" assumes that I'm somehow NOT a cyclist and could benefit from his experiencial wisdom evident just by ...his...shirt...... ...I haven't spent hundreds of dollars on a Lance Armstrong costume no.... but I'm out there every day in normal clothes, working to get more people aware that cycling is totally possible and a great thing to do to get around even in Oklahoma City. There're 3 people at my work who have talked about biking to work too, and one actually has so far. I work in a grocery store too, not exactly a high minded liberal environment. So that's cool... The positive benefits always outweigh the goofballs who hate us. anyway thanks a lot for all the responses!
