Yes, that's obvious. Let me help you out:

On the road I ride with the attitude that if I get hit it’s ALWAYS gonna be my fault, for riding a bicycle on the road, and try to ride accordingly.



This thread ain't about you, how much you ride, or whether you think it's your fault if a drunk driver on a cell phone hits you while you're on your bike. When someone talks about what they do/how they do it and holds it up as the shining example of how it should be done, that's self-righteousness defined. It's a pity you can't see that.



A wise man is frequently humbled.
