I find this offensive. Tell you what. So many Americans detest the looks of cyclists. So the manager wants us to come inside the lobby. ( In some towns we might not feel secure with our bikes outside? ) But, ok, they don't want us outside. So many cyclists are rank from the sweat, heat and they detest the lycra look . In that case, that also is their problem.
The patron ahead better move up or I might sweat on their shoes. Once when cycling, I had to walk into the lobby of a fast food restaurant. I probably sweat all over their counter, after they had closed the drive up for cyclists .
Guess, my real goal. In today's petroleum short world, business' should look on bicycles as a good thing and treat them accordingly. a cool down before I enter their store. Never.
