Cyclists. They are rude, run red lights, ride very dangerously and I want to kill them.

I obey the rules of the road when on bicycle.  Unfortunately, this only serves to confuse the drivers around me.

The Sturgis rally crowd, f%$# why more of them don't end up dead is beyond me? ride the center line, expect everyone to clear the lane when they merge, consider their entire group as one vehicle at stop lights, stop in the middle of the road, etc, etc, etc... F%$#ing morons!!

Is the statistics out yet on crashes, deaths, drunk riding, drugs?

Two more bikers were killed yesterday, pushing the official Sturgis rally toll to eight............So far, there have been 60 injury crashes and 29 non-injury crashes.  Police have also arrested 230 people for driving under the influence, 41 on felony drug charges and another 136 for misdemeanor drug violations.

It appears to be starting out with a bang.

On Interstate 90 near Sheridan, Wyo., 46–year–old Dawn Cousins from Montana was killed when for some reason her bike just veered off the road.

For gods' sake, we have sidewalks in this town.  Stop walking on the damn road!  Yes this means you two ladies with the golden retrievers who took up the whole lane this morning and were offended when I pointed out we have a place for non-wheeled travel.
