[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are mostly (upper) middle aged men trying to feel young and adventurous again.

And no, cyclists should not use the sidewalk. The problem is that our sidewalks and roads were not built and designed for their habits. They want to share the road, but [b]most don't follow laws or rules[/b]. There is also such a thing as going too slow - which by design, is a fact for many cyclists (and then they also exceed trail speed limits on local trails). It not conducive to a safe flow of things.

The same is true of drivers, of course.

My advice to you, as a fellow road user, is that, when you're driving, you should focus on driving in a lawful manner.[/quote]

Oh, bull. The vast majority of drivers stop at red lights. Maintain a range of speed close to the speed limit (may go above, but in a reasonable range). Yield to pedestrians (I am one), drive the right way on roads (ie, not "salmoning") and follow road rules pretty closely. That's not true for cyclists and you know it.

Have you ever looked at drivers while they're driving?  From my bike, I can see a lot of drivers using their phones while driving.  Making BS claims isn't helping the cause towards acceptance of drivers.[/quote]
