[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are a few considerate cyclists. But the lycra jersey wearing douches are generally mid life crisis old white dudes with rage issues but trying to feel youthful again.[/quote]

This is 100% my observation. More often than not, these guys will hog the road/not use the dedicated bike lane almost without fail. The height of entitlement. [/quote]

Bike lanes have all kinds of problems especially for faster cyclists.   I am not that fast, but take the lane and avoid the bike lane if I need to make a left turn or if there is too much crap in the bike.  Often the bike lanes are in door zones, which are very dangerous to cyclists, esp fast ones.  Two way bike lanes like 15th Street, present dangers of bike on bike collisions. The other day a friend said he had an accident in the 15th street lane, and I almost said "dude, what were you doing in the bike lane, you're fast, you should have been in the general travel lane and leave the bike lane to slow riders like me"[/quote]
