A lot of times people embellish these confrontation stories to be what they wished had happened rather than what actually happened. After reading that line, I was pretty sure RC was being straight up."I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

Had a lady chat me up on my ride today, which was weird, but she said she'd been hit twice by cars. Yeah, after hearing that, I let her go first at the street crossing.Comment

If you want to be safe on a bike, come to the Boise area.Originally posted by RC Vikings View Post"I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

That's where I started when I was going to school. I'd ride out on Hill Rd to Eagle or out on Cloverdale and it was country, very few cars. The only place I really got nervous was out on Warm Springs Rd just past the golf course. Now when we go over to visit the MIL I'll ride up on Gowen Rd or on the green belt toward Lucky Peak but there is alot of places I use to ride where I won't any more.Originally posted by Pelado View PostComment

I read somewhere recently that fatalities are evenly split between cities, suburbs and rural roads. One of my good friends I worked with was killed on a rural road in Sanpete County.Comment

There's certainly a lot more traffic now that there used to be. But it's still a relatively bicycle-friendly town.Originally posted by RC Vikings View Post"I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"

This is really horrible news."There is no creature more arrogant than a self-righteous libertarian on the web, am I right? Those folks are just intolerable."

That really sucks.
I haven’t been in my bike since October and it’s stories like this that make it difficult to get back on it.

I know it's not the same but there was a rash of motorcycle/car incidents a few years back that convinced me to get rid of my motorcycle, much to my wife's rejoicing. Seemed like one in the news every week, which made me feel like I was on borrowed time.Originally posted by Moliere View Post“Every player dreams of being a Yankee, and if they don’t it’s because they never got the chance.” Aroldis ChapmanComment

If you miss them in your car you can always just pull over and shot them.Comment

Crazy. If I read that correctly, the cyclist gave the shooter's name to authorities on the 911 call. So maybe they knew each other outside of just road rage.Originally posted by RC Vikings View Post"I think it was King Benjamin who said 'you sorry ass shitbags who have no skills that the market values also have an obligation to have the attitude that if one day you do in fact win the PowerBall Lottery that you will then impart of your substance to those without.'"
