... I don't know about OTHER "VCers" but the reason *I* get my tubes in a pinch over people who flout the rules is because I feel it gives all cyclists a bad...
... Sidewalks aren't meant for high speed traffic; traffic flows on the right. These two rules are meant to simplify traffic interaction so the driver of a...
I see a lot of cyclists, who are faster than I am, riding on the sidewalk. Personally, riding on the sidewalk scares the piss out of me. It is someplace...
Well, AnnaLisa, I'm glad your mom told you that, but do disregard her advice when the traffic is so ferocious that you can't ride in the street. I, too, rode...
What a story! It's true, we come across a lot more when we are out and about in person rather than in a car. I am so happy too to see the Wall Street Journal...
I got my bus stop at work! They put it in today, but I had a ride home so I didn't get to be the first to use it. I made sure to sent the bus company a thank...

Hmm... VERY different. As much as I've enjoyed not owning a car for the last few years, I will say that having someone else drive me (friend or taxi) can...

I agree that where to ride depends on your area. Downtown Santa Rosa has narrow sidewalks, blind driveways and doorways that open directly onto the sidewalks....
It took a couple of emails. And a reminder that where I worked helped out the bus company last year when the Park and Ride had to be closed for a day. ...

Tom, If you really care about your bike Triad, you'll work to refine the idea and promote it properly. Refining it: I don't find the whole thing so compelling,...
"Facebook"? "Get with the times"? Sorry, I _already_ spend too much time on the internet, and there's a point at which I can promote Triadal principles more ...

Exceptional communications skill for persuading and promoting your ideas. Bravo, Tom. So basically you just don't care, you just want to periodically bore us...
... You're right about that. I've seen the specs on your machine. MY machine is considerably more advanced than yours and Facebook bogs IT down; that's why,...
On Thu, Jan 8, 2009 at 6:16 PM, John A. Ardelli ... I like using a mirror because it tells me when I might not even bother shoulder checking. E.g.: If I want...
... Following the rules of the road isn't about being like a car; it's about being SAFE. Certainly, a cyclist is physically able to do what you suggest. ...
