BIKING IS LITERALLY MY FAVORITE MODE OF TRANSPORTATION.
IT'S HEALTHY, IT'S FUN, AND IT'S A GREAT WAY TO GET AROUND.
WHICH IS WHY EVERY APRIL I DO TWO THINGS.
I GET MY BIKE TUNED UP, AND THEN I IMMEDIATELY REMIND EVERYONE, YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO HIT BIKERS WITH YOUR CAR!
YES!
I KNOW SOME BIKERS ANNOY YOU, BUT THAT DOES NOT MEAN YOU SHOULD RUN THEM OVER.
I WANT TO BE CLEAR HERE.
BEING ANNOYED IS NOT AN EXCUSE FOR MURDERING ANYONE.
EVEN BIKERS!
YOU NEED TO GET READY FOR US BECAUSE CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF, WE ARE ALLOWED TO BIKE ON THE ROADS.
NOW, SOME OF YOU MIGHT BE THINKING, WELL, SURELY I CAN HIT THE BIKERS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET.
AND TO THAT I SAY, NO, THAT IS A CRIME!
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE BIKERS WHO WON'T GET OUT OF THE WAY?
STILL NO.
DO NOT HIT THEM.
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE BIKERS WHO DO THINGS I DON'T LIKE?
EVEN THEN, YOU SHOULD NOT RUN OVER A BIKER.
LISTEN, I'M NOT A LAWYER.
BUT I THINK I CAN STILL ADVISE PEOPLE NOT TO BREAK THE LAW.
IT'S AT THIS POINT, I HAVE TO ASK, WHY ARE YOU SO ANGRY AT BIKERS?
IT'S NOT LIKE WE'RE SPEEDING.
IT'S A BIKE.
IT'S NOT LIKE WE'RE MAKING A LOT OF NOISE, IT'S A BIKE.
IT'S NOT LIKE WE'RE TAKING UP PARKING, AGAIN, IT IS A BICYCLE.
SO, FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, PLEASE DON'T HIT BIKERS WITH YOUR CAR.
AND IF YOU PLAN ON BIKING THIS SPRING, YOU BETTER WEAR A HELMET.
BECAUSE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE
