So, who do you side with?  Suzie Goleta or the Shumans.

 

Looks to me like Ralph Fertig, President of the Santa Barbara Bicycle
Coalition doesn’t have a clue.  Cyclists don’t own the road and should stay
to the right as much as possible.  This is a problem and becoming more
dangerous as more people take up cycling.  On almost every club ride I
participant there’s always some jackass(s) in the group who want to ride in
the middle of the road.  A prime example was last Saturdays Buena ride where
I just got frustrated calling CAR BACK and being ignored.  Also, on Sunday,
Bonnie and I did the short version of the ride and lead three others back.
We wanted to ride a little faster, so I gave them directions back and we
went our way.  I look back several times and noticed them riding three
abreast with a car directly behind.  It seems cyclist want to BS and
completely ignore the danger they are putting themselves in and the cars
that have to contend with them.

 

Happy cycling,

Len
