Sorry....must agree with columnist. He does NOT condemn us all...he is careful to specify the behavior he dislikes - and I dislike it too. I dislike it when I drive, when I am a pedestrian and especially when I see it when I am on my bike.
The behavior he describes is an embarassment not only to real cyclists, but to all of us who value civility in our society.
