^^^ Why is your method of commute so important that you
feel it is OK to hold other people up because of your choice ?
Why is it all about 'you' ?
Sorry, I disagree....holding people up because you choose a slower means
of transportation is selfish. The reality, REALITY bicyclists face in America
is that we are in peoples way. That is the publics perception of us whether you
agree with it or not. You add to this by.....holding people up.
This is not Europe. People eat Big Macs and would rather drink beer, watch NASCAR or WWF
than go to an art museum or think.
People who take a lane to go 15 mph created this reality for us.
To start to be taken seriously in the US we need to stop creating a hostile enviornment
for ourselves and try to co-exist. Antagonizing people never helped anything.
