427sharpe...YES, I hadn't even thought about the damn 'bike paths' and rideways. They are all over the place down here as well, and you think they'd allow cars on them, at least at weekends, but "OH NO"...cyclists ONLY.
More of my tax dollars at work building useless paths to nowhere so a bunch of "Tour de France wannabees" can pursue their hobby at MY expense!!!!! Perhaps we should ask the local councils to build "Cobra only" lanes on the freeways...hmmm...now THERE'S AN IDEA...
ROFL...so heartening to see other curmudgeons out there who agree with me...ah, time for a long cold beer to celebrate...
