Two cyclists....one yields, or rides right because he is not militant or needs to
make a statement and one takes the lane because his and Alpha-dog ego make for
good posting on the internet later ???
tuff one, huh ??
Not only do militant VC'ers hurt the cause of trying to 'sell' serious cycling to the
public, it is a selfish way to ride.
You are terribly confused. No one rides in center of lane to be militant or making a statement, we do it because it is
safer. Thats all. We move over when safe and practical to let faster vehicles pass. No big deal.
As to holding up burger boy, he shouldn't be leaving for work so that a 15sec delay makes him late. Anyone who is reponsible to a job or 'date' will leave with time to allow for the normal variations in commute time.
