Thanks everyone! And you know, I'm only considerate because I do try to bike when I its convenient, so I've been on both sides . . . and because you all educate me so well! Thanks for all you all do! Makes me smile to see soooo many bikes on those two streets at all times of the year.
The timid bikers drive me nuts because I don't knwo what they are going to do, so I prefer to hang back and be patient than try to pass and then they speed up and I cut them off . .. but that sometimes seems to make it worse when I slowly follow them . . .
