[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bikers are disgusting and the entitlement and lack of concern they show for others is truly staggering.[/quote]

Because?[/quote]

Because they block major thoroughfares knowing full well the vast number of people it will inconvenience and cause to be late.

Your car does that too.[/quote]

My car is capable of keeping up with the speed of traffic, so no it doesn't.  Wishful thinking, trike. [/quote]

It still slows traffic by adding to congestion, and when you do that lovely gridlock thing, its a lot worse. [/quote]

Absolutely no comparison to the slowness added by one car vs one bike.  You're holding up traffic, being deliberately obtuse and smug about it, and then you wonder why cars hate you and honk at you.  You get what you give. [/quote]

I am not smug, and am certainly not deliberately obtuse - and as I said, the places where I ride in the street I am not significantly slowing traffic, and in fact most of my ride removes me from traffic.  Again, its a settled fact in transportation that you can fit more cyclists in a growing congested place than more cars.[/quote]

When the vast majority of people commute using cars, and lanes were designed to fit cars, not tricycles, then of course you are congesting and causing the roads.  You, of course, know this, unless you have some kind of cognitive difficulty, and that's where the deliberate obtuseness comes into play.  You're not fooling anyone, and simply causing the already rampant hatred of tricyclists to grow. [/quote]
