First off I used to ride all over Odessa Tx when I was a broke college student in the mid 80s, and believe me if there was any city that wasn't a bicycle city it was there.
So you would think I would be understanding nope, uh hu, no way, you demand my tax dollars build you paths and take part of already busy streets so you can pretend you are racing in The Tour De France while saving the world from global warming, giving you an oh so superior feeling over those of us trying to get to work on time. Then don't use them because they aren't straight enough or what ever. Then the assholes get on a 11/2 lane no shoulders winding black top up a canyon with 30 foot straight away's followed by blind 180 degree turns and take up the whole damn lane and flip you off because you want to get by
