  Move Thyself: Flying objects edition

  Phoenix is a relatively flat and open city.  While the main thoroughfares are generally unsafe for bicyclists, many secondary streets are wide and have bike lanes.  In addition, several canals traverse the city, generally east to west.  One, the Arizona Canal, offers 38 miles of canal bank widely used for walking/hiking/jogging/biking.  

  Bicyclists need to be alert to the hazards of motorists.  A very few motorists are aggressive, but it only takes a few.  Some years ago a driver "brushed" a bicyclist on a city street.  The cyclist caught the vehicle at a stop light and shot the motorist.  I don't believe it was fatal.  

  I recognize that this is contrary to the GRIST policy against encouraging or advocating criminal or illegal actions.  On Watch out for that flaming bag of McNuggets posted 2 years, 2 months ago 6 Responses
