It would be entertaining to me to first hear what you think it is before I answer.

Maybe runners, walkers, dog sitters, strollers, farmers, and the Amish are all fat people going dumb places too? So motorists let them slide?

It’s the way our cities and communities are laid out, and the roads that connect it all. It’s just not set up for bicycles.


So go ride a peloton or find a place to ride that doesn’t inconvenience everyone else.

What I've learned over the last 14 pages is that inconveniencing others is part of the fun. So Peloton isn't an option unless you can set it in an intersection somewhere.

Heresy. Even a good smart trainer with Zwift* is like an Impossible Whopper to a carnivore.



*Zwift building a generation of riders with Cat 2 legs and lungs and Cat 5 bike handling skills.

There are probably 40 separate posts in here of cyclists just tickled to death that they've upset people.

Fine human beings I tell you.

For the 10,000th time, a peloton is not the same nor a replacement for miles on the road.

Would you tell a marathoner, gO rUn On A tReAdMiLl?

No you would not.

You do not even encounter cyclists in Louisiana, why are you so triggered by this topic?

Most real athletes are running before commuters even get up. I mean how many triathletes do you even see training and when are they ever holding up traffic?

How many cyclists do you see actually holding up traffic? You don’t. You just have some mentally unstable people that need something to complain about.

I’m assuming having to wait 30 seconds is holding up traffic by your definition? Should farmers not be allowed on roads either?

I don’t think you understood my question. Not attempting to explain at this point.

You are not attempting to explain because there is no reasonable explanation for those comparisons. But man I was hoping you'd try.

Farmers are working and not out making spectacles of themselves. You are one of the pricks admit it.

I suck because I don’t get upset if I have to wait 30 seconds for something? Always been impatient? Instant gratification type of guy? Sounds like a miserable life. But hey, you do you. Think I’m going to go for a nice run. Have a good evening.

Visiting family. But usually run 5 in the morning or in the evenings. Around 20 degrees back in AK which is actually pretty good running weather.

Hmmmm. I end up with a bad cough when I strain my lungs in below freezing temperatures. Guess I need to toughen up. Maybe I can go to Fairbanks and get some of that -10° running in.
