....probably because many are both arrogant and stupid. It's a common trait among Darwin Award recipients.

The road that circles the lake has a ton of cyclists in it. And many areas with no shoulder at all, just guardrail and then cliff drop off. Yet they were riding on them not even phased by drivers going 50-60 mph around them.


I would definitely be phased. I'm very selective about where and when we ride. I place too much value on my life to put it in jeopardy on roads like that.

170 LB man vs 3,000 LB car @ 50 MPH?? Even if you have the right, you don't shrink the margin of error to the length of a football.
