Thanks!

- Because cars pass you slower since you're riding faster
- Because for a given distance, you will have less cars pass you since you get through it faster
- Because you're less likely to aggravate drivers because you're not as slows as a regular cyclist
- Because you're more likely to use the road rather than the sidewalk
- Because you can concentrate better at the faster speeds since you're not pushing yourself so hard
