[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So bikes don't belong in the category of everyone-except-cars? I see people biking on side paths and they don't seem to have a problem.[/quote] Yes, of course bicycles belong in the category of everyone-except-cars. That category is the problem. Like, here's lots of space for drivers, and over there is a narrow space for [i]everyone else[/i] to try to share. It's not comfortable walking on a "sidepath" where lots of people are bicycling, and it's not comfortable bicycling on a "sidepath" where lots of people are walking. The only group that "sidepaths" really work for is drivers.[/quote]Just tell the truth-bikers don't like the paths because the peds slow them down so they bike on the road and slow down the cars. Got it. It has nothing to do with comfort level. It's just that common it's-all-about-me biker mentality. [/quote]
