I was watching terry b earlier and in the 2024 monster track, dude smashes into a suburban and just fkn peels out. Idk doesn’t really feel right and while I’m not asking what I should do, I’m kinda wondering how the group feels about stuff like that?
    What’s acceptable in your eyes? I guess it could be situational as far as like knocking a mirror or pounding a quarter panel if someone was messing with you or they hurt your friend or something but even then, I try to be pretty passive with drivers. Anyways, thoughts?

    1. I’m an instructor with the league of American bicyclists, and I teach bike safety to 1,500 kids a year. I can’t “truly” race alleycats anymore. I recognize that cars are dangerous, but under the law we are both seen as road vehicles. So while I skirt some road rules here and there, I can’t do it like this anymore without feeling like such an asshole (this is all my personal opinion!)

    2. Take ownership of your own actions. Yeah cars bad bikes good, but don’t be a piece of shit human. Your actions have consequences. Accept them.

    3. You know what you sign up for if you join an alleycat. If you take a bad or sketchy line, then it’s on you, and nobody else. FAFO, imho.
