I looked him up on LinkedIN, and he is an AVP for Wells Fargo Advisers. uh, regrettably, I am 3rd linked to him (friend of a friend of a friend).  I wonder what his employer would think of his vlog post?

Wouldn't THAT be fun to find out! Shocked

I like how he does many of his videos while driving.  Guess that's safer than riding your bike in the lane...WTH?!  Huh

I have to say I just watched the first half, but I agree with the guy up until that point. I can't stand road bikers who want it both ways. If you're gonna take a lane and act like a car, don't then blow past stopped cars, don't run red lights and stop signs. And then wonder why people hate you. And especially don't go on your huge weekend group rides on major roads (or any roads really, twisty back ones are equally as dangerous) and ride two, three, four wide. Flame on.

Doesn't That Guy Have Rights?
Of course he does. However, his rights end when they impede on the rights of others.
As Providence Road is a public highway, all persons have the right to use it at normal speed. By impeding traffic, he infringes on the rights of others.



copied from his website. Since when was "driving" a "right". 

  And sir.....you driving on the road is impeding my right to ride my bike on the road.

The guy on the bike has a right to use the road. However, the guy has a very valid point at the red light. He is giving everyone who commutes on a bike a bad name when he blows through that intersection. Because there are going to be a lot of people sitting at that intersection thinking the same way this guy does. I see it happen all over the place where guys are blowing through red lights and passing cars at intersections stopped for them. It doesn't help the cause. Once in Pittsburgh I saw a guy on a bike blow through a red light and cars had to stop for him. When they blew the horn at him his response was to flip everyone off. That makes for great bike advocacy.

Charlotte really should have more bike lanes, especially with as congested as roads like Providence Rd. get in the morning.

You need to rethink your friends, if they make friends who make friends like this..  Undecided

He posted this on Twitter BTW: 

Eric Cable ‏@EricCable 25 Apr
People who obstruct traffic with their bicycles should shampoo my crotch.

All those in favor of sending it to the compliance folks over there at Wells Fargo brokerage??? 

Heh heh heh.

Good thing he doesn't live/drive in a city like New York or San Francisco with all the messengers. He would probably have an aneurism in traffic

It is common for drivers to not like cyclists on "their" roads, but to be so worked up about it as to create a website and start a petition?  This dude's got way too much time on his hands.

I don't understand what is going on in the cyclist's head either.  Riding Providence at rush hour strikes me as both very unpleasant and unsafe.
