Default Re: Urban cyclists, and what to do about them.

Roads aren't designed specifically for cars. They're designed to facilitate transport for every kind of vehicle in the most efficient way, i.e. so that any vehicle with wheels could use them. It's true that most roads have been changed so that they could also support a high load of car traffic, this doesn't mean that cars have the only rights to that road, or that they're specifically designed for them.

Also, 5 miles takes 20 minutes maximum when using a bike. Counting traffic lights is retarded because you also encounter those when using a car. Further, in a busy city, in a car you're braking and accellerating all the time, when biking you can maintain a good speed.

Your argument about standing up for 8 hours straight and not feeling like walking home is trying to convince people that it's actually bad. I stand up for 8.5 hours each workday and cycle home after that, you don't see me complaining.

Lastly, I notice that the only reason you hate bikes is that you are apparently unable to use them, and that while you drive your car they seem to irritate you. Guess what, people like you who drive in a car and think the road is designed solely for them irritate bikers. I assume they should complain as well?

I wonder if some biker has accidentally hit your car when it was new and that you now hold a grudge against that kind of transportation.
