Give me a freakin break.About 2 hours ago I saw about 30 or more bicyclists using both southbound lanes of Peachtree Street at 10th. The drivers behind them (including me) didn't seem to mind. It was a beautiful evening, and they were enjoying it.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.
Me, too. Had a yummy dinner at Doc Chey's.😀

I think we should just have free bikes for everyone and then we save money,gas,enviroment and no one can haul ass over 35 unless they are really breaking a sweat and in this heat!
35 on a bike, in the heat, into the wind in, on the flats in FL would be very impressive :yikes:

remember, even you're not a fan of bikers on 30a, they are entitled by law to 3 feet of clearance.
i always get grief when i point someone towards the search function. seems n00bs think they're the first one to think of something to say

I'm certainly in no hurry... In fact, I may start riding my kayak on the bike path. 😀Anybody ever watch "The Adventures of Pete and Pete" on Nick in the early '90s? Pete's superhero had a land canoe. I Googled it with no luck...

I don't have a problem with posters new or old posting something that has been discussed before. Geeze you'd have to do a search before every post. My problem was the somebody with under 10 posts (heck at the time I think under 5) posting some hateful, arrogant, self serving, sanctimonious crap like skinny water did.

I think 30A needs a shoulder at all locations to accommodate bikers who prefer the road to the bike path. My main beef with them on the roads is that there isn't room to safely give them enough space when there is oncoming traffic. A shoulder would easily solve the problem.

Amen.
You know, I kept trying to think if there was an applicable adjective you'd left out. I think you got them all. As far as I'm concerned, crap is code for equine exhaust.

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. ;-)

:lolabove: SJ and RO: I love seeing your buttons pushed so easily!!! :funn: :wave: you know, truthfully, that's how people get hurt - riding their bicycles in the road... with all kinds of traffic and big trucks and drunk drivers and blue hairs, mostly out of towners who are looking everywhere but the road... :floor:
just kidding. sort of.
