Republicans are typically the people against good public transportation or bike lanes on roads. Republicans tend to be the people who don't travel outside the United States. Democrats tend to be in favor of these things and they are also the people who would be riding a bike around on vacation.

Imagine your typical red-neck conservative going to Europe on vacation. Hard to do? Now imagine them going on a bike tour. It's fucking ridiculous.

I see plenty of American conservative-looking tourists in Amsterdam, on bike tours too.

Not rednecks, but the kind of suburban chuds you see on TV holding up anti-abortion signs and driving squeaky-clean SUVs.

I'm an anarchist American and I'd die on a bike tour
