I must say that is a very harsh judgement on all cyclists. Most of us DO obey road signals and the highway code, and only get abusive when either cut up, driven off the road or abused by to**ers in cars.

It is a fact that the average cyclist produces around 0.4 horse power.... so our limited speed is not choice but the limit of our human bodies. Car drivers with 100+ horsepower need to realise this.

I would respectfully suggest that you try cycling on the roads before making such statements.
