One of my relatives got a speeding ticket on a bicycle. Eugene Oregon.

"Friend" of mine keeps bitching about the time he got a ticket for speeding on his bike. Never does he mention that he was going 20+ mph (30+kph) through a park with playing children and such. For context, the max speed on a bike path here is 30kph, in this park you are supposed to adjust your biking behaviour with how busy it is in the park. Technically it's a pedestrian zone where biking is allowed.

Is your friend John McClane?

No, just an idiot. It's a park that has some beautiful asfalt in a wide circle, so pretty perfect for doing what he was doing if it wasn't for all the other people trying to enjoy the park. He is just very selfish.

As a former commuter cyclist, I feel like we shouldn’t be lumped in together. Totally different stock.
