John Ratliff, what you describe I just think of as simply lawful cycling, or just transportational cycling. How else can transport yourself by bicycle day after day, year after year, without being lawful and a part of the whole that is "traffic."

I don't have issues with Veit Cong and VC. When I hear VC I think of all the negative macho BS of the lane position "we-don't-need-no-stinkin'-bike-lanes" zealots, the phony studies, sour grapes and made up mental disorders of John Forester, and the rabid anti-bike lane "sky-is-falling-we're-losing-all-our-rights" fear-mongering of certain hyperventillating members of this forum.

What doesn't change is transportational cycling and what is required to get it done. You may find that best described by Robert Hurst. But it's possible that no MAN has quite described what it takes to be a woman transportational cyclist, which when combined with the rabid sexism of the Forester Brand Vehicular Cyclist, might explain whey there aren't more women advocating their brand.
