Well..can I ask you one question: Would you ride your bike on a two lane (busy) road during high traffic times (or would you pull over) for vehicle drivers so they can actually get to work, etc.. on time?

Btw: no offense if you wear this, but I think bike “uniforms” look ridiculous.

If the road is that busy, I ride somewhere else. If it is a 30 mph subdivision, you can go around me but I will hug the edge of the road and try to let you pass. Remember, I have less than 1/2 horsepower, so when a cyclist stops, he has to restart using muscle power. You have 100-400 hp under the right foot, so try to be understanding.

I don’t anymore. I wear bike shorts under regular shorts and a plain bike jersey because the padding in the shorts and the construction of the jersey has a lot of practicality.
