Now if I was doing 30 in a 40 zone...Then sure I can see your point. But if I am doing 5 or 10 over the speed limit and someone wants to get past me....maybe I am saving someones life further down the road. The more mature thing is for the driver on my a$$ to slow down. Not me to pull over. But that's just me.   |
I hear you Paul, I was going 35 in the Mboro Gauntlet last year during bikeweek (5 over) when these donkeys in a mini-van came up on my butt. I stayed my speed and they passed me in front of the school. I never wished to see a Moultonborough cruiser so much in my life. The real bummer was that the three guys in the van were riders (or playing dress up)
