Biking should never be mixed or confused with motorcycling. Like healthy Water and Polluting Oil ;-) 10 Thumbs up for a biking community.
Do you actually ride a bicycle? I mean. I ride about 75 miles per week on my bicycle, I follow the laws of the road including offering hand signals and keeping to my lane... I have been punched on my back by some guys passing me in a van sending me down an embankment, have been run off the road by a semi, and have been nearly head-on'ed by a motorist texting while driving who ran left of center straight at me. Are you folks with heavy vehicles ,(who OFTEN drive distracted), saying that bicyclists are dangerous to you? I seldom see a cyclist doing a lot of texting, but I see boodles of that going on with automobile drivers. I see the texting and inebriated automobilers, and the motorcycle crowd,(helmets or not, inebriated or not),REALLY frequently in the E.R. where I practice, about 150 for every one bicyclist. Have yet to see victims of a 20 bicycle pile-up on the freeway....
Motorized operator permits need to be tougher to acquire, I'm now thinking. ;)
yes, would like to see a bicycling gear section, but I'd be okay if it got added to Outdoors...if only to keep us properly segregated from the motorbike and automobile folks, because, clearly, we are lesser beings in some way.

snicker.
cool. as long as that's workin' for ya.
