Okay.
Without condoning at all the actions of these two
at-large cyclists, I do have to admit that Claire
Osborn's accounting on the front page of Friday's AAS
of this incident does seem particularly slanted
against bicyclists in general.

a snippet:

"He loved Austin," Zachary said. "He said it seemed
like a small hometown, was laid-back and the people
were extremely nice."
He did mention, though, that he had noticed a lot of
bicyclists.
"He said there was a real problem with all the
bicyclists in the road," Zachary said.
-------------
Regardless of the reporting, this incident highlights
what can happen when the driver of ANY vehicle acts in
such a way as to add undo stress into the equation.
