You don't have the ***** to split lanes so I bet you don't have the ***** to open that door on your BIG truck. Leave your truck at home and ride some more then you will see what stupid thing you stated.

Unbelievable, the things people say in here. Yeah, I share when the need dictates, if not, I don't. No, I don't do 80 while sharing, but have no issue with you doing 80. I know I'm biased because I ride, but I appreciate the bikes not contributing to the bumper to bumper traffic jams when I'm stuck my truck. Geez, no one would ever get where they're going...

What i'm wondering is if CA is the only state where it's legal, how many bikers are you seeing do it in SC that you have time to throw your door open to and if you are doing that, why are you still alive? I think poser or troll is about the correct description for you.

yeah i love doing it sitting in the middle of beach traffic in the summer...f*ck all of you, here i go to the head of the line.

i guess people in new york just aren't as understanding, though...

inevitably, some scientist about 10 cars up pinches the white line because he sees you coming.

gota love cracking the throttle though just as you get up to the driver's door and take a quick glance and see mom jump out of her skin.

Split lanes? Of course I split lanes even here in South FL, been doing so all over the country for nearly 40 yrs.

I decided since the bicycle lanes weren't being used, I'd use them as well till I got pulled over 3 weeks ago by two Harley owning LEO's that said doing so gave bikers a bad name. Thinking to myself, we already have a bad name with the public so who cares?

Anyway I didn't get a ticket and my concealed sidearm was returned, since I was legal in that regard.

So I don't use the bicycle lane anymore lately, well almost don't. But I still lane split. Yes its illegal down here but I'm ahead of my time in that regard.
