The bike shop is on Falls Rd. and rides have been leaving that shop for...oh...30 years. Falls Road is the standard route out of Baltimore.
We don't car about cars. We don't care about traffic. We don't care about shoulders. We are legal users of the road and freely exercise our use of this public accommodation, alone or in groups. If motorists or others don't like it, that....would be their problem.
