Bicycle Bill

I tried riding my bike to work for a good week before giving it up. Obeyed all the traffic laws, but it was much too dangerous. Folks don't even see you. The roll up beside you when you are stopped at a sign or don't stop for you when they have a stop sign. It's borderline crazy and I stopped before I got hit. I asked some bikers about it and why they rode like they did and they basically came back saying that it's safer separating themselves from traffic, which is why they they blow through lights and stop signs. After trying it "legally" I can understand some of their points. Luckily work moved and is right off of the trail so when I do feel like riding my bike to work I don't have to take any roads.
