I am now thoroughly convinced that following the traffic laws while bicyling is essential. Thanks for all the great feedback on this. I will relate a great story from my friend Dan S.

He was telling me he was at a stopsign where he made a complete stop. He began to pull out, and a guy on a bike RAN THE STOPSIGN and narrowly avoided a collision with Dans Van-And yes kiddies...Its the biggest frigging Van that he could find too.

Not that it matters, as a SLUGBUG could still kill ya if you are on a bike..

But I digress...

Anyway, deputy dipsh*t the biker guy had the AUDACITY to yell at Dan. Yes...he BREAKS THE LAW, and gets PISSED at Dan for almost "hitting him".

So it occurs to me that IF Dan DID hit Jackass monkey bike boy and say put him in a body cast, El Morono del biko stupido would have had a ticket mailed to him in the transcare unit of whatever nursing home he was convalescing at for failing to make a complete stop at the stopsign and causing an accident, and probably would have had to pay for my buddy Dans body shop guy to rub a cotton diaper over his quarterpanel to get the blood and scalp off.

But no-Thats not what happened. Dans son Matt...A GREAT kid I must add...And made even greater in my mind ater he made this statement:

(This in retort to the chastising of the guy on the bike yelling at Dan for "...not watching where he was going...")

"YOU RAN THE STOPSIGN MORON" Matt says

Nuff said?


Two thumbs up for Matt S. You rock!
