I do not obey any laws. I can be riding 30 miles per hour on the street or on sidewalk with a woman and baby walker, petrified of me and jumping for cover.

I don't even stop for most red lights. Never for stop signs. Pass cars and busses. Catch up and teach a lesson people that drive close past me. Cycling on the streets is the ultimate form of outlaw. Except that you're within law.


Here is a scary fact. I can pedal my fat arse from point A to point B at 14.5 mph average, that's 24 something max on some stretches of flat.

Take a car, and measure average speed, it's hardly ever more than 7 mph in city. Cars are only faster when going on highways during times other than bumper to bumper rush hour.
