Why can't a single cyclist or group of them use the MMP someone asked? They can if they wish but some do not because of rude cart drivers, among a myriad of other reasons.


Why do cyclists ride in groups on the road, taking an entire lane? Because it is safer, you see them and cannot share a lane with them.

What can cyclists do to minimize accidents?

1.Take the lane to be seen
2. Wear bright colors, yes even Lycra
3. Use extremely bright flashing lights. I recommend cygolite for the visablity of a thousand suns
4. Install an automotive horn for bikes. I recommend loudbicycle.com
5. Install rear facing radar to warn you of auto traffic approaching

So right on!!! Golf cart drivers are the worst!
