I don't mind, though, and the kids don't seem to either. :o)Kerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07092696049502701851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459417.post-1145987610201857452006-04-25T09:53:00.000-08:002006-04-25T09:53:00.000-08:00Hi budda.

That's right, on <I>your</I> side of the white line. That's because the shoulder is often too narrow or too dangerous to be ridden safely upon. If you come across a cyclist in the road and cannot safely pass - you are required by law to <B>slow down and wait</B> until it is safe to do so. Usually, this will cause you a 10-15 second delay.<BR/><BR/>I hope that doesn't ruin your day, but if it does, sorry.<BR/><BR/>The long and short of it is that cyclists are to be treated just like any other slow moving vehicle on the road. Be it tractor, large truck, or otherwise, a cyclist has every right and responsibility that you do when out on the roads.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the flip side perspective and stay safe out there!Daniel Satelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01282270186990794647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8459417.post-1145911725537546392006-04-24T12:48:00.000-08:002006-04-24T12:48:00.000-08:00Wow and oh my Gosh!!!
