If you take pleasure in riding a bicycle on Route 2 through the state of Montana, you are an idiot.

Why is that Clark? It runs parallel to an interstate. I would think all the traffic in a hurry would be on the interstate. I examined a long stretch on google satellite and it was generally straight with wide lanes and a small stretch of shoulder. I would imagine that there are places it goes through mountain passes where the sightlines are limited and the road narrows.
Edit. Yep, I'd avoid those passes. Beautiful road, beautiful scenery, but too tight in some of those blend bends.

Sam, I called it a highway, not an interstate. Clark mentioned 200 and 13 in one of his posts. I looked at 13 on google and commented that I had seen cattle on it. I didn't mention whether I saw cattle on 13 or 200. He asked which interstate I was referring to and I cleared up what I was referring to by calling it HIGHWAY 13.
I think when Travis asked which interstate I was talking about he was going back to my first response to him after he mentioned Highway 2. I told him what I saw of 2 ( generally straight with a shoulder) looked good with the exception of the passes and that it paralleled an interstate. Further saying most traffic would favor the interstate. I was referring to Interstate 90. 2 parallels 90 where I viewed it.
Tell me again why your knickers are in a knot.
I think you've demonstrated why people see most bicyclists as morons.

Because I can't keep your name straight or because I call highways highways and interstates interstates?
A couple years ago my hunting partner and I were hiking up a trail while hunting deer. Idaho doesn't require orange and we weren't wearing it just so we wouldn't be so conspicuous to all the hikers/bikers in the area. A hot shot biker came down the trail past us and the snob SOB said 'why aren't you wearing orange.' I thought too slow but a good response would have been 'why aren't YOU wearing orange?' I was the one with the gun and I wasn't likely to shoot myself. After all, what's the purpose of orange anyway? FWIW, he was wearing a shade of blue that would have looked gray in the right light. He looked much more like a deer than we did.

Most riders have the elitist mentality that they are more virtuous than you! I hug the fog line, wear ear buds and listen to the radio! No helmet - after 63.9 years, what's the difference? Two or more and they drive down county roads side by side 'til someone comes up from behind. I honk my horn and swear at the axxholes - its a violation of state law.
Yep on all counts. If get hit, I figure its ALWAYS gonna be my fault, and ride with that mindset.
The best way to get away with murder is to run over a bicyclist. If the motorist is sober, it's all but guaranteed there won't be any legal action taken at all. I ride defensively and courteously. It's served me well so far.
OTOH don't drive to close to azzholestrong. Aquaintance of a fried evidently was inside the 3 foot rule and sat in jail for some years or such for it.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....
I'm going to go off topic and rant at joggers around here too. WTF is it all about jogging in the street when there is a sidewalk and even nicely groomed DG paths. Are they bicyclists that got a flat and don't know how to fix it?
Or even folks walking. The black ones around here, some of them just decide they have to be as close to center as they can be, rather than at the curb or on the sidewalk where I would be if I was walking...
