Pic of the "new" St Mary street

[CajunStros]

I'm down with making campus more bike friendly. However, cyclists are not as innocent as they claim. I RARELY observed cyclists obeying traffic laws. I spent plenty of time on campus as a student then again as an employee, altogether nearly 10 years. I once witnessed a kid get smoked at St. Mary and Girard...kid tried to cross the street (ran the light) and was laid out. Guess what? The cyclist got the ticket.

I'm not completely blaming the bikers here because it's not their fault the roads in this town are largely not bike friendly. What I am saying is that the bikers need to be taught proper bike etiquette. This could/should be done in orientation and/or in UNIV 100.

That has been my experience as well. I have no problems with the cyclists and in fact was a member of a club in my younger years. But as a group, they are much more aggressive and reckless.....No different then auto drivers in that manner.

Ight, well they do put the fear of god in ya if he does that machete drill you were talking. I was just looking into a way to get Bret Baer some reps on his leg to stay warm for when Benson and Loomis get rid of Heartly.
