A Case of CIC
I don't really believe in Forester's Cyclist Inferiority Complex, but this may qualify.
In today's Washington Post District Extra Dr. Gridlock article, Dean Nguyen, a mountain biker and assistant manager at a shop near Springfield, Virginia, declared in no uncertain terms that the *only* place for cyclists was on trails and paths; never on the roads. Oy.
wish I could find the exact quotation. There's a couple anti-cyclist letters in there.
