The reality is simply that there are good drivers, good bikers, good runners, good walkers and of course, bad in each category also. To label a group as a whole, is not very open minded. I've had many near misses while running, and was hit on my bike a couple of years ago near El Cortez. The thing is, I run, I bike, and..I drive a car. I don't feel an entitlement to any of these modes of transporting my body from one place to another. Apparently many feel quite differently. Wake up.

Thank you for this post. Of course there are bad cyclist just as there are bad drivers. I have never ridden my bike in TV but have been an avid cyclist in the past. THE MAIN THING I GOT FROM THE VIDEO IS THAT CYCLIST HAVE JUST AS MUCH RIGHT TO THE ROAD AS VEHICLES. Why do so many think they have no right to be on the road? Of course they can aggravate you and maybe slow you down but so do walkers, runners and OTHER DRIVERS. Again, SHARE THE ROAD....IT'S THE LAW! What part of this is so hard to understand?
