I got a chuckle out of this. Likewise it's nice from a car drivers point of view to know the direction an ipod laden cyclist may dart off in any direction at any time. I find anyways.
But your point about the burbs is spot on RB. In the next 30+ years more people will live in the downtown cores, walk, cycle, be close to work and amenities. ...and those dreaded burbs that you detest as do I will be our urban slums.
Now I am venturing out on my mountain bike,...not on the roadway, mainly because of some of the idiots who drive cars, but moreso because there are some excellent trails through the green spaces that surround my home,...and it has dried out enough to be enjoyable.
Just hope I don't have to deal with idiot cyclists.
