Your observation is noted, and that is the multi-use path on the side of 30A. Get your own road bike and try riding on that path, before you blame other road-bikers for not using it. ;-)

Give me a freakin break. and check the FL street laws. They have just as much right on the road as you. Yes they don't always come to a complete stop, don't signal when turning but then again I doubt you obey all the traffic laws while operating you car/suv/van.

FL laws say no more than two wide.

However, I doubt Lance rode on the bike path when he's been down here.

No one has as many rights as me. This is my world, and I'm just letting you all live in it.

No more Ms. Nice Guy. I'm gonna put a cow-catcher on the front of my Prius and scoop up bikers, rollerskaters, small children with puppies, and landscaper men with weedeaters and blowers. Then I'm gonna leave all the bikes, rollerskates, puppies, and small equipment on private beach property, overnight, while I go to a longstanding local establishment and complain about the service.

After a nice ride (on the path) this morning, I must say some of those bikers have no business putting on tight spandex.:sick:

I think most use the spandex only for the cush saddle-padding inside.

Mine have cellulite-hiding, loose-fitting shorts over them.

You're welcome.

SJ is right. I made the same point in the first thread on this subject. Read it there. It explains why serious road bike riders are choosing to exercise their legal right to ride on 30A. These men and women are not pansies. Unless you've ridden 100 miles in one day against the wind, you won't have a clue what I'm talking about. BTDT.

Here are three questions:

1-Is the Search function dead? Has the "redundent thread detector algorithm" broken down?

2-Why is this issue so important? Don't we have bigger fish to fry?

3-What's the big rush? Why all the Type A attitudes, anyway? After all, we live AT THE BEACH. The speed limit on much of 30A is 35, with more than a little bit 25. You can't get anywhere in a hurry in July. Relax, adopt a 3rd world pace, or move back to Atlanta. (Just a figure of speech. No offense intended to actual Atlantans who are temporarily or permanently in possession of relaxed 30A attitudes.)
