Locals Voice Concern over Bicycle Conduct

A local Forum/Blog has sparked concern that the Seminole and Whalen Roads are over crowed and are of concern. The forum supported by madison.com (Madison area Newspapers) sparked this controversy (Find it HERE) and continues the debate between bicyclist and motorists which was included in Sundays May 10 Newscast. In the original form post the author asks some questions to seemingly ALL bicyclists. Hmm I cannot say I have every done any of these except for the complex part. Yeah I feel good when and after riding my bike. 600 Outfit? Was someone riding in their wedding dress?


* do you ride 4 across, block the road then act like I'm a dick because I honk at you?
* do you never obey traffic laws(specifically stop signs)?
* do you never wave me by when you're in front of me on top a hill?
* do you get off by making me drive 5 mph until I also can see over the hill?
* do you speak so loudly to one another it wakes me up out of a dead sleep?
* do you think it's ok to not slow down and almost hit me when I'm walking my dog?
* you get some sort of god complex when you ride a bike? It must come with the 600.00 outfit.
* do my taxes pay for bike trails when you don't use them any way?

Despite having redone this road not terribly long ago, and the fact that it's a major access point for the Capitol City Trail, there is not even a shoulder, nevermind a bike line, for riders in this area.  What a bizarre, short-sided move.
