   Of course I know what it takes to ride a bike. I'm 60 and I rode my bike for   
   years and never had anybody honk at me, except once the cops on base were   
   annoyed that they could not keep up, so they honked.   
      
   You are a miserable excuse for a man if you demand your own lane amongst the   
   congestion. I have no pity for your plight at all.
