Every time I see one of those spandex wearing bike nuts, I leave the area before I get run over...

[dragnet2]

We need new laws to regulate the speed of these killing machines...No joke...They need to have those glow painted orange tips or paint jobs on them.

Lets pass legislation where all riders are required to real lighted safety helmets.

Aww Jeez I was just in a ridiculous argument with my brother along these lines.
He wants to ban all things that COULD hurt.

[PGalt]

What does MABABY (Mothers Against Bike Accidents By Youth) say about this?

[DB]

Then he needs to ban himself...

[Smokin' Joe]

Besides car accidents, I think drownings are the number 2 cause of accidental deaths in children.

SHHHHHHHH!

They'll want to ban water next....

The war can only be won by our side if each man pledges to service one unattractive, loudmouthed, hirsute woman per week

Seems some are taking care of that for each other (at least some of the ones with flat top haircuts).

[ZULU]

BINGO!

BUT,as in “Global Warming” and “Climate Change”(IMAGINE THAT - THE CLIMATE ACTUALLY CHANGING!!) leftist control freaks never facts get in the way of a good fabrication.

Notice the unisex frame in the staged photo. I noticed something similar a week ago, and it reminded me of the prevalent gender-based designs from years ago. I’m thinking skirts was the factor back then, certainly not the gonads.

That’s the big one alright. Almost 10 times as many children die by drowning each year as from accidental firearm injuries. From 1999-2010, the CDC says 11,640 drowning accidenfs and 1,375 accidental firearm fatalities in the same period among those 0-17 age range.

But that’s OK, because swimming pools are fun, and so is the beach.

They’ll be less concerned with capacity if you tell them you ride clipless.

[USS Alaska]

The really top shelf ones are shifted with battery operated servos

Like this?

“A top of the line racing bike can cost $15,000.”

LOL (no sarcasm and I believe you). By comparison, you can get a new Ford Focus for about $1,000 less and a reasonably well equipped BMW R1200RT touring motorcycle for about $3,000 more. What we will pay for out toys if we can afford it.
