close encounters of the asshole kind, I'm good with something short of the death penalty, but hey, that's just me. I seriously felt threatened by the few who snugged up as close as they could get without actually hitting me.

It all goes back to Rush Limbaugh declaring war on all those evil environmentalists/tree huggers who chose the bicycle as an eco-friendly form of transportation. For you younger people, I shit you not, true story.
