Well, I have to admit that sometimes I get the urge to run down the University 
Bicycle team types here. They have no concept of the term share the road, an 
act 
like cars do not exist. But I guess that is more a teenage feeling of 
imortality 
than anything else. However I have noticed that people who wear regular clothes 
when riding act more civilized than those who dress like racers.

Of course I am one who aways considered a bicycle as transportation rather than 
a toy. I am sad to say that health and helmet laws do not allow me to use them 
that way anymore. I still have a Raleigh laying about the apartment in parts 
awaiting to be restored.
