It is a shame the original poster used the opportunity of an anti-cycling comment on AM talk radio to express his nitwitted opinions about vehicular cycling. Backing up cars is a direct consequence of having too many cars on the road in the first place, and not the cyclists' fault. Even Critical Massers who do this intentionally are not incrementally destroying the environment, since they are advocating/promoting in an arena where cycling is perfectly legal but made impossible/untenable by selfish motorists.

Still, the purpose of this forum as precisely this sort of discussion/debate. So have at it...
