It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

I feel pretty safe with all this but it still honestly scares the crap out of me riding at 30+mph with cars.

Get a more high visibility jacket.

I used to love riding my bike in traffic, until I started taking driving lessons.

I was looking for the bikers and missed them pretty often.
