It said a protected bike lane, so relatively safe, and only irritating to people who really love sitting in car traffic. Facilitating alternative modes of transportation makes car life better by reducing traffic. Not to mention all the other benefits.
Next you'll tell me trains are a bad idea.
I have yet to have a single interaction with a cyclist that was positive. I'm sorry but it's completely idiotic for people to ride bikes in the road alongside multi-ton vehicles.
Could it be because you're in the driver's seat of a rolling multi-ton threat to cyclists' lives?
Build better infrastructure like this separated lane that is slated to be removed in Metford, then there will be more cyclists away from car traffic rather than in the vehicle lanes.
If every single person you run into is an asshole, you are the problem.
you are right, there is no reason for a private citizen to need something so dangerous as a multi-ton vehicle. I say we go with your suggestion and outlaw cars completely, and convert existing roads into bike paths. People will be healthier, the environment will improve, tourism will increase, and people will not be afraid of their neighbors. We will no longer be plagued by man babies cowering behind the wheel of their big boy trucks trying to kill us for existing
You Bill, are a visionary.
incidentally this is the Fuck Cars dumbass
That's why we want to get rid of the fucking tanks you people insist on driving around!
Inefficient, polluting and ugly to boot.

Personally, I like to drive my 🚗 at 🚲 speed.
Which cyclist taught you how to ride a bike?
