i hate sharing the road.
i dont understand why bike riders cant use the sidewalk
cyclists are the biggest trolls. These old white guys think they're practicing for the tour de france...at rush hour
so true.
but thesse youngns on the fixies are worse. i see some on road going really fast with out a helmet or anything and then they make left turns on the road like they are a car.
I'll use a sidewalk if absolutely necessary, but the sidewalks where I'm at are shoddy as **** and it's a lot smoother to ride in the road. As far as the left turn thing is concerned, if that's the route they have to take, then what's the problem? Cyclists do have to take on the role of a car in certain ways when on the road. The no helmet thing is pretty dangerous, I don't have one, but I've got a big head and haven't found a suitable size yet.
It's actually illegal to bike with headphones on around here, but these cops don't give a damn about that ****. I've ridden past plenty of policemen with my headphones on and they barely even look at me. I'm sure a lot of that has to deal with the fact that I have my dreads down a lot, and they cover up my ears, but even riding at night with no lights on my bike (which is also illegal) will not garner the attention of these cops. Cyclists aren't at the top of the priority chain for these guys.
