- I don't know if I consider myself a true bicyclist, but when I'm stuck
- in heavy traffic and see someone fighting it with a bicycle, I think
- to myself:
- "I should be out there on a bicycle with him (her)"
- "Why don't more car driving slobs ride bikes"
- "Why doesn't this road have any accomodations for bicycles"
-
- BTW, I used to live in Western Pa. area. If I had to avoid all roads
- which had heavy traffic and no accomodations for bikes, I wouldn't be
- riding. Period.
- (However, in California, bikes are somewhat tolerated)
