bikes are too fast for sidewalks, and too slow for traffic lanes

But the fact of the matter is that bikes are too fast for sidewalks,
and too slow for the traffic lanes. In other words, THERE'S NO PLACE
FOR BIKES (unless you are going super slow or super fast).

Not certain I'd agree. I am NOT the fastest cyclist, by any stretch of
the imagination, particularly when commuting as I don't want to sweat.
Nonetheless, as I commute to work, I frequently fall in behind the bus I
would take were I to take the bus. I am always within a few
car-lengths, either side, when it arrives at the stop at which I would
exit the bus were I to take the bus. In short, I cycle as fast as the
bus travels (granted, the bus has to stop to meet the needs of other
commuters). Since I don't hear anyone suggesting that the buses are too
slow for the road, I must not be too slow for the road and, by
extension, all the cyclists who pass me (who are legion) must not be too
slow for the road. So it is not fair to say that cyclists are too slow
for the road.

The bus is also massive enough to crush the largest luxury SUV.

It may a reason powerful enough in a place where MIGHT IS RIGHT.

Interesting there's a book by that name, that's still censored after a
century, and yet very much practiced everywhere, including in our
roads...

"One would think that in our liberal, enlightened times a book dating
from the Victorian Age would be viewed as a quaint curiosity. Not so
Dr. Ragnar Redbeard's notorious Might Is Right or the Survivial of the
Fittest. It is hated and denounced as much today as when it first made
the rounds of the Victorian Age's elite and influential, which
explains why the book is often featured on banned-book lists."

Is that why people avoid *you*? Or is it because you are an ape?

I'm one myself and I'm proud of it.

We are waiting for the Planet of the Apes, right?

"the apes, who can talk, are in control and are divided into a strict
class system: the gorillas as police, military, and hunters; the
orangutans as administrators, politicians and lawyers; and the
chimpanzees as intellectuals and scientists. Humans, who cannot talk,
are considered feral vermin and are hunted and used for scientific
experimentation."

I'd like to experiment with those humans who drive SUVs to see what's
in their head...

Dung beetles think it is like going to a fancy restaurant.

"Beauty is in the eye of the beerholder" or so the saying goes among
the winos, those who always ride a rusted bike.

Many people think **** of the cyclists (perhaps associating us with
the winos), but we know is good.
