DR picked you up on this once already today.


I have NEVER said I always "aim for," or ride in, the middle of a
lane. *I have many times said I share a lane whenever it's safe to do
so. *However, it's not safe to do so in a ten foot lane, unless
perhaps the passing vehicle is a motorcycle or other bicycle.


In a previous post in this thread you wrote:


* I'm going to continue to ride in the center of the lane,

Need you be reminded of your own words twice in one day? *Or does
"middle" not also mean "centre" in your dictionary?


Let's add his subsequent:
"Fourth, I rode in Portland again this year. *I absolutely controlled
the lane many times, AS ALWAYS."

Sounds like his standard tactic.


Let me make that clear, if it confused you. Every time I ride, I have
to control the lane sometimes. I did not mean I always ride the
center of every lane.

I have explicitly said MANY times that I share the lane when there is
enough room for safe passing.
