re: Bicycles should go on the sidewalks especially when they’re wide.

If bikes are vehicles, obey the traffic laws.

If bikes aren’t vehicles, stay off the road.


Cyclists want to have their cake and eat it too by being on the road then acting like douchebags because cars that far outweigh them are having to pass some dipshit in the middle of rush hour.

I'm going to agree with you and agree that cyclists shouldn't be expected to be on sidewalks.

At the same time, there's lots of a-hole cyclists, several in my neighborhood who will just blow through 4-way stop intersections. They should follow the rules when there are other vehicles at those intersections (I understand not coming to a complete stop if it's 5:30am and no one else is at that intersection).

Also, stupid shite like that Critical Mass thing in Houston where people on all sorts of bikes intentionally take over entire streets even speed down the sidewalks where people are trying to simply walk to a restaurant doesn't help the image of the biking community, at least in my opinion. The City of Houston should shut that thing down, or at least force them to not act like jackholes.
