If you ride on the road, obey the traffic rules. If nothing else, it will help motorist adapt to the thought of responsible cyclists on the road. Is gas still expensive?

Drive in Missoula for a year and you'll be ready to run down every cyclist you encounter for the rest of your life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shotsup 836 Posted June 21, 2011 thats a pretty big discrepancy considering we live in the same general area. interesting. I know - when I have to travel up state/NJ via the Palisades I always fill up in the last exit (south) before the GWB and it is usually at least 30 to 40 cents cheaper per gallon then NY. I plan my tank around NJ fill ups. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drive in Missoula for a year and you'll be ready to run down every cyclist you encounter for the rest of your life. I am a cyclist, and try to follow the law most of the time. Admittedly, I roll a stop sign now and then, though this is legal in some places…Critical mass rides just seem to p!ss people off, never accomplishing their stated purpose of cycling awareness/changes in infrastructure. The other side of the equation is motorists, who by and large do not know the law as it applies to cyclists. Most seem to think bikes should ride in the gutter or the sidewalk, and that cars always have the right of way. I've been clipped a couple of times by people turning into me, and almost been the recipient of numerous "door prizes" because traffic allow no space cushion. Don't know which group behaves worse.
