The Bicycle Culture The Sept. 6 Rants and Raves resulted in the inevitable response to last week’s “Pedal pushers annoying.” The most tedious responder seems to be unaware of the fact our great western migration, (“Perhaps a history lesson is in order”) was accomplished with animal drawn wagons, not bicycles. I suppose the bikers are right, they pay other taxes and registering their “vehicles” would be unfair. So bike paths and other markings should be free. Maybe there should also be “bike stations” for flats, mechanical repairs, drinking water fill- ups, etc. I also think it is unfair for them not to be able to pedal Photo courtesy of the Ormond-by-the-Sea Lions Club on Interstate 95.
