The solution is simple: Ride your bike to work the legal way.

I wish more of you people watched PBS or had parents explain to you how ecosystems work on this doggone planet.

Any press is good press when people in the most polluted city in North America are apathetic enough to keep driving their cars in 5mph bumper to bumper traffic. I just wish folks on these blogs would start discussing solutions instead of the actual ride itself. Think outside the box people, free your mind from the status quo.

That’s cool, but what happens when it comes to hills? The bike doesnt seem as speedy then, does it. That is when you need a car; Tennessee.(hilly+Mountainous)

Motorists were not mad… Motorists cheered!

Although I don’t condone the actions of the riders, they are getting attention. The news have been touting it as “A protest for high gas prices”, nice little spin for those who are not on the know…

Morons like this are usually behind the wheel! Who gave them a bike?

Yep, it looks like a lot of fun — thumbing your nose at motorists has a certain smug pleasure, but everyone’s right: this ISN’T gonna convince motorists of anything but the perception that bicyclists are crazy scofflaws.

I really liked Jon’s comment: “If you want to promote cycling, do me a favor and stop helping”.

I understand the point, but I’ve seen people get killed in their cars on I-40. These people are so damn lucky they didn’t get killed.

I just wish people would stop trying to be the hippest person and just do the right thing.

I understand the point they’re trying to make, but bikes don’t belong on the freeway. It doesn’t help convert the drivers and stands them a pretty good chance of getting hurt. Not to mention that it was pretty illegal.
