I'd be interested to hear what it was about this article that spoke to you, Michael.
I'm seeing a buncha nothing here...
Salmon never think they're the problem.
They assume the bike rider in the middle of the road is a jerk, not noticing the shoulder filled with glass and potholes. They assume the driver who honked is a jerk, not realizing his intention was to give a helpful heads up before nervously passing a bike rider.
Bit of a false equivalency there.
Yup. Not to mention that "riding in the middle of the road" ISN'T a jerky thing to do. It's what you're supposed to do. But then you get honked at by "helpful" drivers giving you a "heads up" before they try to run you off the road.
This coming from an organization that's supposed to be working for our right to the road.
All I can think of is that they have hired a bunch of people who don't actually bike themselves, except maybe on a path on Sunday afternoon when the weather's really exceptional. I know a few in the paid bike advocacy world that fit that description.

Ah, I see... so it was like... the three-ness of it.
