Stop Signs Are For Suckers

We like the idea of more people on bicycles. It's the reality that's irritating. At least in our community, cyclists have established some new rules of the road:

* Stop signs (and stop lights) are for suckers. By suckers, we mean cars.

* Bike lanes designed for single-file riding are best navigated five abreast so we can talk better on our ride.

* When bike lanes are absent, sidewalks make nice substitutes. Pedestrians should stick to the curb.

* Overweight guys biking to work should wear form-fitting jerseys .

Instead of waiting behind a group of cars stopped at a traffic signal, snake through them to get to the front.
