Cal's 1, RV's & bicyclists

My purpose in posting the original was largely to throw one more reason out there as to why I personally don't think it is a good idea to be encouraging RV's on parts of Highway 1, especially during the peak vacation times. RV's hold up enough cars without throwing cyclists in the mix to hold up RV's. Cyclists are at risk. (I would have been clipped by a Class C's passenger side mirror when I was in a bike lane on a 4 lane road in Redding had I not been watching their approach in my mirror.). Motorists are at risk for a head on when either bikers or motorists fail to exercise due caution. Where I can find safe bike lanes or multiuse trails, I bike around 100 miles a week. I'm the guy that always gives pedestrians, bikers & most especially motorists, the right of way. And I give lots of thumbs ups to others who are doing the right thing. I will tell you that the better the cyclist, the more they seem to feel everyone else should get out of their way, especially other cyclists. All users of the roadways need to be courteous to all others. And sometimes that may mean avoiding a road that has the potential to be deadly. Be safe out there.
