I commute primarily by public transit, and spend many, many miles each week as a pedestrian. I don't ride a bicycle, but the "bad" bicyclists definitely stand out to me, bot has a pedestrian and as an occasional driver.

Stunts like this (or just about anything else Critical Mass oriented) gets particularly infuriating, since they take Bike Power to such an extent that they create traffic hazards and consistently create problems for pedestrians and transit.

Yes, I realize that not all bicyclists are like this, but the "bad" ones are frequent and prominent.
