Based on what I have seen a lot of guys on bikes do - they seem to
think that if they ride faster than everyone else, they are safer.
Meaning, they trust their own abilities to dodge / weave over others
ability to avoid them. Considering some of the stuff I've seen 4 wheel
cage drivers do to us on two wheels, I don't entirely disagree with
that point of view. I feel that I am a safer operator of a vehicle
when I am on two wheels - I pay more attention - I tend to be a lot
more cautious - and I have a better idea of what my bike is doing.
Some people (I daresay most of us on here) use this hightened
awareness to be even safer - others it seems simply use this hightened
awareness to ride faster / harder and dumber.
Just a couple thoughts.

degrees up here this morning!)
