Besides, we all know it's how you do something that's dangerous, not what you do. Couple that with what you've agreed with and add in the lack of collateral damage of a bicycle collision vs. an automotive collision, and we get to see what's really dangerous. People not riding bikes. (or people riding bikes like bozos)
Since a large percentage of people do not bike, there will not be that high of a percentage biking deaths, but only including cyclists the percentage will jump.
