Whatever. But I do think that riding a biking takes more balls.

If my country was recovering from a Russian invasion the last thing on
my mind would be road-rage.

Although I did have a nice picture of cyclists with rocket launchers
slung over their shoulders -- tanks aren't manuverable enough?

Oh this is Georgia USA, the home of Coca-Cola, and road rage,
according to the post.

I guess this is more a civil war than an invasion.

I think what really move the American electorate is not bicycles or
motorcycles (they weren't mentioned in the debate last night), but
oil, and as such we can almost conclude that...

Would Chavez make the American people happy? Yes!!!

See, Americans don't care much about politics. Democracy has been
eroded beyond recognition in the last 8 years, and there hasn't been
many voices with weight that denounce it, a reality that has been
popularly endorsed by Bush's re-election in 2004...

In reality Americans only care about the economy. The invasion of Iraq
better gets results, ie. oil to fill the gas tanks of their SUVs. And
when you think about it, Chavez would fit the bill. He got the economy
working through petrodollars and the gallon of gas fetches 12 cents a
gallon.

So forget about Obama and McCain, what we need here is a Chavez. And
perhaps President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad too... How much is the gallon of
gas in Iran?

POLL TAKEN AT...

Not really. Grew up riding in the traffic (5lanes rush hour on a
Schiwwn Collegiate) Compared to riding on I5 during rush hour in
Seattle? The bicycle was EASY, no brainer, no need to think except for
obeying the traffic laws then demanding and taking my place in
traffic. Works the same out of town...only change is "slow traffic
keep right" Other than that...you don't have to think nearly as much
on the bicycle.

They are only to be laughed at when the wear black leather.

actually you'd be bassackwards. Spandex is useless if one ends up
sliding on asphalt. The leather otoh WILL protect you from getting
gravel picked out of your skin or getting skin grafts. Can spandex do
that?

And indeed it has happened to me even more scary.

As both a bicyclist and a motorcyclist, I am really shocked (not really) at
the hate directed at bike riders in the above posts.

We, as motorcyclists, have more in common with bicyclists than cagers. *Like
it or not, we are on the same team.

Share the road.

Those of you complaining about riders two abreast, I hope you understand why
some of us don't tolerate Harley parades. Self righteous pricks I say. Both
of 'em.

Yeah, make fun of spandex, and I reserve the right to laugh at chaps and
leather vests. You are all a bunch of selfish people. *Me, Me, Me!

Share the road with our 2 wheeled friends. *Get off you ass and ride a bike
in traffic, I double dog dare you, are you man (or women) ennough?

All you loud pipes folks talk of freedom and rights, well, put up or shut
up. *Let the pedalers be free. *The roads belong to the people.

Share the road. *Don't be a selfish ass.

You must have reading comprehension problems. It doesn't say anywhere
what you claim, but illiteracy in America is NOT the subject here.

Bicycles and Motorcycles do have a lot of common. To begin with the
both ride on two wheels (two wheels good, four wheels bad) and they
are both at the bottom of the food chain. Well, at least the latter
can outrun the predators, but sometimes they just come out of nowhere.- Hide quoted text -

Uh you are patently WRONG that motorcycles are on the bottom of the
food chain. That place is occupied by pedestrians. Motorcycles when
ridden by a experienced rider actually is an apex predator with the
resultant problems. 8^) Well that's my personal experience.

I've said motorcycles are at the very bottom, but near the bottom. At
least you can run away from bigger predators. But make no mistake
WHO'S KING OF THE JUNGLE... SUVs.

Maybe motorcyclists do it for looks when they refuse to wear a helmet.

It looks cool though, except in hot summer.

So there's evolution or not? Not with McCain at least.

Those underpowered, overweight ill handling pieces of **** are nowhere
near the top......they are the hippos of the motoring world. half blind
and only dangerous if they charge you from the blindside, otherwise a
quick sidestep sees them blundering past. A half decent car can PIT an
SUV, yet an SUV can't keep up with a half decent car.....
