THE ISSUES
YOU'VE SEEN THEM.
WE'VE ALL SEEN THEM.
Those packs of neon-clad warriors, squeezing into tight formations on our precious roadways, pedaling with the self-importance of someone who thinks they're saving the planet one insufferable mile at a time.
Let's be honest about road bikers, shall we? These weekend warriors aren't environmental heroes – they're just hobbyists with expensive toys clogging up our roads. The irony of watching someone load a $5,000 carbon fiber bike onto a gas-guzzling SUV before driving 40 minutes to their cycling route isn't lost on the rest of us sitting in traffic behind them.
"Share the road," they preach, while taking up entire lanes during rush hour. Nothing says "I respect others" quite like forcing a line of 20 cars to crawl at 12 mph around blind corners because heaven forbid they use the bike path built specifically for this purpose.
And let's talk safety – not just theirs, but ours too. When a cyclist decides that stop signs are merely suggestions, guess who's legally responsible when things go sideways? That's right – the driver with actual insurance and a license plate.
Cyclists often claim the moral high ground, but their actions on the road tell a different story. It's time to hold them accountable and demand real solutions that work for everyone.
Road sharing challenges
Some drivers find it frustrating when cyclists occupy vehicle lanes, especially on narrow roads where passing safely is difficult.
Traffic flow disruption
Cyclists typically move slower than vehicular traffic, which can create congestion in areas without proper bike infrastructure.
Perceived rule-breaking
There's a perception that some cyclists ignore traffic laws, like running stop signs or red lights, creating safety hazards.
Infrastructure costs
Building dedicated cycling infrastructure requires public funding that some taxpayers may prefer allocated elsewhere.
Rural road limitations
Many rural roads lack shoulders or bike lanes, creating potentially dangerous situations when cyclists and vehicles share these roads.
Licensing and regulation differences
Unlike motorists, cyclists typically don't require licenses or registration, which some view as regulatory inconsistency.
Cultural tensions
In some communities, tensions exist between drivers and cyclists about road use rights.
Seasonal challenges
In areas with harsh winters or extreme weather, cycling infrastructure may go unused for significant portions of the year.
Parking conflicts
Bike racks and storage can sometimes take up space in urban areas where parking is already limited.
Emergency vehicle considerations
On narrow roads, groups of cyclists might make it challenging for emergency vehicles to pass quickly.
We're not just complaining—we're taking action! Founded in 2023 by drivers who've had ENOUGH, Americans Against Road Bikers stands up for the forgotten majority: the people who actually pay road taxes.
While the spandex brigade clogs our streets without contributing a dime to infrastructure, we're fighting for transportation policies that reflect REALITY, not cyclist fantasy land. We advocate for dedicated bike paths separate from main roads - because safety matters for everyone.
Yes, we believe in "sharing the road"—in a way that makes sense. That means cyclists should have their own infrastructure instead of pretending they're training for the Tour de France on your morning commute. Our common-sense approach demands accountability from BOTH sides.
When planning communities, we need to recognize the reality: cars, bikes, and pedestrians deserve separate spaces to maximize safety and efficiency for everyone.
