“You should see ‘em jump when you pass them on a Harley with straight pipes and crack the throttle.”

Thank you. You have just helped me immensely with my decision on after-market exhaust for my ‘09 Road Glide.

Our local area is infested with group cyclists on the weekends, who insist on making some sort of inane political statement by not sharing the road with cars, riding slowly side by side, en masse. What makes this particularly infuriating is that they also have bike lanes on BOTH sides of the road, AND and a dedicated cycle path!

Thumbtacks. Yeah, that’s the ticket.

Yes!

They just go wherever they please, no doubt feeling morally superior.

Once in a while, one gets hit.

I feel bad for their loved ones but they ~have~ clearly marked bike lanes.

~I’m~ not supposed to ride on the sidewalks...so I ~don’t~.

They need to heed their own rules, too.

[baffles = the devil...take ‘em out]

;D

A couple have even taken to challenging trains for the right to ride.

Physics, apparently, wasn't their strong point.
