Cyclist's are a pain in the butt. They should put the Lance Armstron wanna-be suits away and show some respect for the rules of the road.

A great event! Terry Osell, one of the premier tandem builders in the U.S. lives in our area. And no...we don't want to be Lance Armstrong wan-a be's. We just enjoy cycling in clothing designed for the sport. Do you think Kevin Garnett would like playing basektball in street clothes? And also, I agree that cyclists need to obey the rules of the road. I really get frosted when I see a fellow cyclist ride through a red light while I wait. Many of these riders are commuting to and from work, and wearing orange vests and backpacks. It's not a good way to get motorists support for lanes and trails.

Reference to tww posting: Some people don't like seeing other people who remind them of their own short commings.

I never understood why grown men feel the need to wear helmets and gloves on paved trails. I actually know why.
