that's not a bad idea. This way when those careless "bastards" run you over, at least you'll get paid.

Don't bike too. Don't you ever bike man. Not even letting your kids to bike too. You people are funny and hilarious and crazy too . Is like being a cyclist a genetic predisposition. At one point in your life as well as the lives of your family members, they must have ridden a bicycle!!! If not, you are certainly deprived in some ways... This is sad....:)

Dude, we've all ridden bikes. I love to ride a bike For recreation.

When I need to drive 50 miles to New Jersey with my family and a load of presents or whatever, it's sorta kinda inconvenient to hop on a bike. Especially during bad weather.

No one here is putting down cyclists. I wish I lived in a warm weather climate and could bike to work. It's an excellent and fun way to stay in shape. I mountain biked for years after almost getting hit by a car riding on the road.

This woman was an a hole, plain and simple. She didn't stop, she fought with the cops, all for publicity and to sue. She got what she deserves.

And I know very well how hard it is to go over 35 on a bike. I've been riding bikes since well before you were born.

Again, you bring up article after article and the fact is, you only see the bad incidences. You don't ever hear about the little thing here and there that they do to protect and serve. So yes, BAD APPLES. I realize there some kind of "brotherhood" of cyclists, but honestly, and it's good to band together for a cause, but sticking to the original story, it's pretty cut and dry at least for me. Running a red light = breaking the law. Running from cops = breaking the law. Suing the city for being arrested by 5 or 6 cops = sad state of the U.S.A.

All he requires is that you push his automobile around the city because it's so old and feeble, it won't start. ;) :lol:

Basically. If you can afford it then why does it matter how high it goes? :rolleyes:

Exactly. Though I must say it was a little jolting at first seeing the $70+ that it takes to fill up my gas guzzler of an SUV, but still, not really a problem, even if I had to drive to work, which I don't.

It's like when they raise the prices on the Metro Cards, I don't even pay attention. So it goes up $20. I spend that much everyday on Starbucks...well not any more, since I am on a health kick right now. :lol:;)

Pay MDJAK 5 bucks and he can print it for you. Can't guarantee it will be anything better than something you would hang on a fridge next to a 5 year olds drawing :lol:
