OP here.  Interesting excuse (living there) for riding on an unsafe road.  I live on an unsafe road, and when we first moved here, I tried riding on it a few times.  Then I stopped when I saw how dangerous it was.  I started taking my bike on my car to other locations to ride.  It is really inconvenient, but I would take the inconvenience over risking my life.  On my road, I HAVE to "take the road" in order to ride.  Consequently, drivers behind me must wait until I turn off to pass, or risk passing into oncoming traffic on a curvy country road.  If you are a cyclist and you live on one of these roads and ride on it, there is only one word to describe you.  IDIOT.[/quote]

Amazing, living someplace is an "Excuse"  for wanting to use the roads where you live to get somewhere.

In fact, despite the examples of douchebaggery resulting in death, its not that dangerous. People in rural areas do bike places and generally do not get killed.  And they improve their health.   Apparently many people are able to wait to pass until there is a safe place to do so.   There is a word for those who do not. Killers.   [/quote]
