Concerning the Cyclists on the Sidewalk
You human trombones have a bike lane the size of a regular lane. use it or i start a program where you get deported to Sacramento for a week and you get to bike for your life there.

	Don't ever move to Kyoto. Bikes on narrow fenced in sidewalks going both ways, maybe with a baby seat on the back. And front. And maybe an umbrella holder. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	but do they have a sizeable bike lane... i appreciate that safety and anxiety would make someone use the sidewalk if the bike lanes are inaqequate (as they usually are), but theres not really an excuse here (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	i actually dont mind that as much as people yelling ahead expecting you to move out of the way. considering how theyre forced to slow down when it's so tight it'd probably hurt them more than me (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	YES! FUCK THOSE PEOPLE! I HATE THEM AND THEIR YELLING SOOOO MUCH! almost is bad is when i walk in the street, but right next to the curb and people yell that they want to pass me on my RIGHT side. you know...the one that is inches from the curb. i seriously don't understand why they yell and don't go around on the other fucking side of me...

	yeah it's the incessent ringing of the bells to warn you to get out of the way. . . most of them don't slow down, and it still hurts quite a bit. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	If Davis is supposed to be the bike capital of the US, and we have the frickin National Bike Museum, and we're a 'Bike Friendly City,' we have adequate bike lanes for these a-holes. But you should deport them to San Francisco. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	there should be a biking etiquette/laws seminar required during freshman orientation methinks (Reply to this)

	Oooh if we are sending them anywhere, how about Watts? There they can really bike for their lives. Personally I just don't make way for them, they can either hit me or crash off to the streets as they usually do. (Reply to this)
