Tuccillo... If you read back on posts about bicycling, you will find that I am a staunch defender of cyclists' right to the road, even though I am not a cyclist myself. I would like to point out, though, that comments like "move on" used to defend yourselves from breaking the road laws are what lead to cyclers being labeled as arrogant, entitled, and otherwise special. My suggestion would be to make your initial statement, but leave any impertinent declaratives out of it. Nobody, but nobody likes to be told what to do.
