ted etal hey ya dude ease up on the pissing the cars off ya knows what i have no clue bout riding where u live but theres something i know bout the city i live in and the cities i travel n drive(and have bicycles stashed away) in often and the one thing i know is the guy behind the wheel of that scarywarmongeringbigass suv is the ahole not the youngster buzzing the redlight on his/her fixie

i have never pissed off more folks on my bike than when im driving cause yrs ago i took the "bicycle advocates driving pledge" http://www.biketraffic.org/biketraffic/BT120103/ i dont run red lghts i dont roll thru yellow ones either i stop at stop signs dont "park" in pedestrian crosswalks while waiting to go thru i drive the speed limit or less on surface streets esp in residential neighborhoods (its another world on the freeway each one for themselves and i just dont figure that counts...) i dont turn right on reds i signal every turn i make dude u cant imagine how often i get the finger of ire horns blaring every time i turn into my own driveway cuz i dont take it at 50+ sideways im always in someones way when im behind the wheel of a gas burning vehicle rarely noticed when i break all the rulse on my human powered two wheeled machine theres just something wrong with a grown man r woman who cant wait 30 seconds for me to move outta their way figure their job sucks their significant other sucks theyre tired of living with their mother at 40+++ or something like that otherwise i figure every state outta be like idaho red lights n stops signs simply outta be yield signs for us nonlethal weapons peace yr way every single day esp when yr on yr human powered machine sarahgibsonkansascitynbeyond
