I hope you at least scared the chit out of them.

And then gave them some instructions as to which hand signals mean what. Of course, I am assuming that bicyclists do use the same signals as the rest of the population. I just don't know.

Snowgirl wear were you riding at up here in the land of cheese?
I can't let this go.

As of 2000 California produces more cheese than Wi.

SNIP. Problem is (other than the obvious man sack barely concealed on the front side), is that that they ride tandem, taking up an entire friggin lane. They leave not quite enough room for the fairing to fit between their columns....

Pisses me off, as it forces you to cross a double yellow, to go past em, as they are going maybe 15 mph, if that.
Here there are dedicated bike/running paths and "THEY" still use the roads sometimes riding 3 abreast allthough signs are posted telling them not to. I hate the interesections when the don't even borther to slow down.

They're supposed to follow all the same rules that apply to everyone else; signal when they turn, come to a stop at stop signs and stop lights. I have seen a LEO issue a ticket to a guy riding a bicycle for not stopping at a stop sign.

I told my crew, "Next time well just run themdown." Don't get me wrongI'm a MTN Bike rider,however I use the sameturning signs I use on the Bike...
hum... 700 lbs motorcycle doing lets say 50mph? that is about a 10,000 lbs of impact force and would be considered vehicular homicide. I am glad none of my mountain bike buddies feel that way about me... being a roadie (or non-motorized biker as you call them) and all.
"Don't get me wrongI ride a motorcycle everyday" but if I ever saw one of dem vespa riders... "well just run them down"[:@]
