Sorry, I had to go really bad and my wife had the toilet.
Exhibit A: I’ve seen a group of Schwinn Armstrongs ride through a red light and then start waving middle fingers at everyone that honked at them.
Fuck all of you faggots that act like that
I like a good, real story where different people all get together to find results and solutions to a problem, and in this case, what was a life threatening problem.
Medicine today has evolved far beyond what anybody in the past century could have imagined, but there are still many hurdles to overcome. And currently, it is facing a very serious existential threat from the woke cult with it's twisted definitions of gender and biology. If this societal cancer is not removed in time, success stories like this here may be the final ones of it's kind as we enter a new dark age.

Those are definitely some friendly skies.
They seem to completely ignore traffic laws(which they are supposed to follow). The ones here will look back and see traffic coming then leave the shoulder they've been riding on and ride in the lane of travel blocking the road.
Years ago in a town not far away a pack of those twats got blown off the road by a semi pushing a headwind, I think the whole area celebrated.
I picked a guy up and drove him several miles home because I saw him pushing his road bike with a flat in cycling shoes(spare tube had a hole he said) guy acted like I was a prick for stopping. Probably won't make that mistake again.
We need to encourage cyclists to carry lightning rods......

I’ll be dammed, I never believed that it existed!
Uh huh. Is that why Hardley riders swear that 'loud pipes save lives?'
I've ridden in SoCal and DC traffic for decades so keep trying to lecture me on the differences between motos and bicycles. There IS a difference. There are also similarities.
The biggest difference is that cyclists don't have a throttle to accelerate out of trouble. We're stuck taking the abuse and unsafe driving from the (thankfully tiny) percentage of drivers that drive with their head up their asses,
The similarty is that lane position is one of the biggest ways to avoid thoes DHUA types. So let me ask you a question: do you ride exclusively on the right side of the lane all the time or do you move around based on traffic conditions? If you move around your lane depending on lane and traffic conditions to keep safe, what makes you think cyclists don't/can't do the same thing for the same reasons?
Someone staring at their phone doesn't look anywhere but straight ahead when they do check the road. If you aren't in their sightline when they do manage to stop staring at the phone and you're not immediately visible, you're much more likely to be run over. Doubt me? Try it and see.
Those of us that spend real time riding figure this out quickly and adapt our riding to conditions. Get passed at the crest of a hill with someone coming more than once? Move left till traffic has to stay behind you till its safe. Too bad the guy driving the dump truck hadn't figured out that there may just be something coming as he pulled out to get around me just before a crest of a hill. The oncoming car wasn't speeding so he had time to jam on the brakes and get back in his lane.
Get passed into oncoming traffic? Move left till its safe for the car behind to pass? I can't stop the absolutely idiotic maneuvers but can mitigate them a bit. The moron in the Civic that passed me into oncoming traffic WHILE I WAS TURNING LEFT. I was on the DY with my arm out till the last second and Mr Rocket Science figured it was a good idea to pass me at over the speed limit to avoid a head-on. If I hadn't done one last shoulder check and straightened my turn, said moron would have certainly hit me. Thankfully, the person behind him had somewhat more of a brain and let me turn.
Believe it or not, most of us don't actually want you behind us more than is absolutely necessary. We're not on some power trip to see how many cars we can 'hold up despite what y'all seem to think.
