I'd like to make an appeal to my cycling friends. If you're going to slap a bumper sticker on your Subaru asking others to share the road, please heed your own advice. If your fifty member cycling club is winding up Hwy 178 at ten miles an hour, you're not sharing the road. If you're riding down the middle of the Blue Ridge Parkway with ten cars behind you, you're not sharing the road. You may have the same legal right to be there, but that doesn't give you the right to be rude and make everyone else wait on you.
On the other, to my motorist friends, although it may at times be tempting to run some of these self-absorbed folks into the grass, it's probably something we should make an effort to avoid. (Save that temptation for the Floridians who drive like they've never seen a curve in the road before.)
Share the Road
