i feel safe in traffic, and I support facilities. I'm a facilities advocate for the good of my community, to make roads less autocentric, and garner 'average' bicyclists a more visible road position than wide outside lanes.

It's not wrong, you can do it if you want, daily commute, but i consider your stance a fool's game in the name of vehicular parity, to wait behind cars when you are on a much more maunuverable bike, that allows a bicyclist to split lanes and advance on traffic.

What do you do when there's a mile long backup becasue of a traffic accident up ahead, daily commute? Call in late for work ?
