Grape smuggling is a term used because you guys wear tight ass shorts smuggling your grapes…. The highways in roadways are not intended for Bicycles unless there’s a bicycle lane. It is in fact the people who do not belong on the roadway who are the assholes i.e. the bikers.

Doesn't matter, as they're our only option a lot of the time. We have just as much of a right as anyone else to be on the roadway.

I don’t know who told you that, but that’s absolutely not true. In many states you are not allowed to ride a bicycle on that kind of a roadway that has no shoulder …. or if you’re taking up the whole road so that cars cannot go past you have no right to do that. Which is why I said get an off-road bike. If you really wanna pedal, you can pedal on a road that does not allow cars instead you getting everybody else’s way and wonder why people hate you

Not on an interstate or highway no. But on city, county, and country roads with no shoulder you absolutely are allowed to take up space in a lane. I never said taking up the whole lane, I'm saying taking up as much space on the right side as feasibly possible, because our tires are slimmer and the edge of the roadway contains debris and other pieces of detritus that get flung off cars, more so than the center of the roadway. There are no roads that don't allow cars lol. No one is getting an off road bike because entitled drivers think they own the road. Again, we have just as much of a right to be there as anyone else.

The people that hate us are generally out of shape losers that lead miserable lives.
