So, in YOUR town, those folks going 45 mph just slow down to 15 mph and follow you down the road wearing friendly smiles? Must be a very nice place to ride and live.
EXACTLY! my point... ain't gonna happen... and discourages riders from even trying to become commuters. Of course as Daily Commute says... a bad bike lane doesn't help much either... as they kill cyclists.

But I would rather have at least an attempt at a bike lane, than try to endure all those "friendly smiles."

Daily Commuter and John Forrester would have you belive that it is just the lack of education of cyclists that prevents you from riding 15MPH in that 45 MPH traffic and smiling back at all those "friendly smiles" from the frustrated cage drivers.
