selfish idiots should just accept autocentric society. this goes beyond protest, this is an act of stupidity. yea, i get the point of a CM ride, to alert drivers of bikers as traffic. but bikes dont belong on the ****ing freeway. What i don't understand is how a protest can draw attention to a movement by drawing outside the lines and getting front page coverage. Didn't they know rednecks in development like me would not understand and get angry even fearful because I don't understand?
and i've seen the other freeway rides on tv from other places because here there is no question, bikes belong on the sidewalk. i get the point of it, weaving past cars going 10mph. yea, the point it that it's funny to be sitting in your car in traffic, something i will waste a big portion of life doing and see kids whiz past you on bicycles. i get that, it means bicycles are for kids and i'm a kid, but when i grow up i should give up on bikes because cars are for grownups once you turn 15. but to intentionally add to delay thereby pointing out the flawed system of transportation that has destroyed all of harris county and caused my mom and dad to swell up like ****in walruses? dont say it wasn't intentional, mom likes candy and dad eats when he's sitting in gridlock. common sense says this system is flawed but we don't havea lot of that here. If i had a rifle on that freeway it would have ended that way.
