As many pointed out (including myself) 99.99% percent of my daily commute delays are due to other reasons. I never denied it. I do find it odd that many would rather use the road than bike lanes but maybe that's just me. Of course, just like every other cyclist in America I'm forced to ride on the roads from time to time, but I'll always bow to the steel brush guards. I assume you do as well because you're all still here typing. I do pass cyclists on the road giving them a wide birth (like 99% of other drivers) without honking, shouting, spitting, or throwing a milkshake on them. Honestly, I can't even remember the last time I abused a cyclist...years at least. Am I a type A? I suppose I am...(I dare say Chipcom is as well) I look at the world and find it wanting...especially in bicycle infrastructure and maintenence. In a thread entitled "There's a lot of hate toward cyclists" I also notice there's a lot of hate toward motorists...actually in all of the A & S section. So much hate in the world, eh? Oh well...glad to be of service.
