    I have 2 touring bikes. NO way I’m drafting a truck or bus. Just one small object kicked up could make you un-alive.

    Also if I am on a bike and I am in Pennsylvania, no way I’m going to be riding on the interstate. You will find me on the back roads enjoying the scenery :)

    I'm planning on finally getting my bike license this year. I intend to ride like I drive: as far away from stupid as I can.

    Don't worry about what they think. They haven't looked in their mirrors in the last fifty miles anyway.

    Definitely worth having. It’s nice to jump on the bike and just take off.
