[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] (Side note - drivers don't like guys struggling to ride at 10 mph using a 45 mph road because it slows them down.)[/quote] Generally, people who struggle to ride at 10 mph don't ride in the road on 45 mph roads, because it's too scary dangerous. People who ride in the road on 45 mph roads are generally fast and experienced road bicyclists. In addition, please don't generalize about "drivers." When I'm driving, and I get behind a bicyclist, I wait patiently until it's safe to pass. I know that a posted speed limit of 45 mph doesn't mean I get to drive 45 mph everywhere, and I also know that a delay of 30 seconds or even a minute just isn't meaningful. It's just like when I'm driving at the speed limit, and a driver behind me can't stand it and roars past me, only to get held up right in front of me at the next red light.[/quote]
