When they pay to register their bike on the road, just as I do for all of my vehicles, not just one, then they'll have a place on the roadways.

I would gladly pay a fee to use the roads, if it meant people would stop swerving at me in the cycling lane, throwing rubbish at me, swearing and hurling abuse at me, chopping me at intersections when I am clearly entering it before them.

I always ride alone and stick to the lane if provided, basically I try to do the right thing because I am not interested in deliberately aggravating people driving behind me at 80km/hr. Plus cyclists are able to be fined just as any other road user running red lights etc.

Maybe some drivers don't like it that I can hold 40km/hr on the flat with a mountain bike while they suck fumes and sms and facefuck one another on their smart phones in peak hour pile up.

Perhaps you consider yourself to be a fairly car conscious peddler, and that's fine, but the same way that you call out motorists as cunteyes, there are just as many arrogant fucks on push bikes. Whether you would be willing to pay to use the roads or not, until cyclists do, they really don't belong on it. It's by no means a personal attack towards you or any one individual, but, and I'm being fairly stereotypical, nearly every cyclist who's appeared on A Current Affair, the news, etc etc, has gone on about their 'right' to be there.

That post is utterly brilliant. I don't think it could be said any better

I find it funny when people in a Getz come up to a cyclist and suddenly think they're driving an Abrams... Swerve into the next suburb to get around them it's a joke

^^I guess that means pedestrians don't have a right to cross the road either...

I only have a problem with drivers who are deliberately targeting me as I described. I've been riding on Perth roads for over 20 years, times have changed, people are not as tolerant as they used to be.

They have the right to cross in designated areas, and have to wait and allow traffic to pass in 95% of the others.

Yeah, it sucks a bit during peak hour. I generally stick to my lane, which gives them about 30cm of breathing space which seems acceptable to keep the traffic moving in both lanes.

I have seen cyclists chop up a red light a bit lately, if they want to be on the road like a vehicle, stick to the rules like the rest of the traffic on it.

Pretty poor form i always thought to myself.
