BB members,

I want to thank Paul for sending that article.  It says that 2008 bicycle sales almost equaled car and light truck sales.  So, where are all those bikes?  Can you imagine if all those bicyclists knew that the have the same rights to the roads as motor vehicles, if they all knew how to drive their bicycles as vehicles and if our roadways all had curb lanes wide enough for cars and bikes to travel together?

Cyclists fare best when they act and are treated as drivers of vehicles
