Where do you see "Bicycle" in the word "Sidewalk"?

Sidewalks are for w-a-l-k-i-n-g, not for riding your bicycle. There are these lanes on the side of the road, between where the cars go and where the people go called a bike lane. They were created so that you can ride your bike in relative safety while I can walk to where I need to be in relative safety, novel concept really. Why you feel the need to whip down the sidewalks through hordes of people and get snotty when we give you dirty looks when you yell at us to get out of your way astounds me. YOU person on the bicycle are a Chapeau de Derriere.

I hate the way they mix between being road users and walkers to suit them. They ride along on the road until they get to a hold up, like a red light, then they suddenly ride across the crossing. The crossing is for walkers, not cyclists. If you did that on a motorbike, you would get arrested.

And while we are on the subject - why are cyclists allowed to race on the roads, but motorcyclists and cars aren't - it should be a level playing field, ban cyclists from racing!

In Australia drivers lean out their cars and push cyclists over, I think we should all become Australian.
