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.

MANY places like this exist in America unfortunately. Their point is valid, it's super fucked up and part of the reason cyclists have been harassed, attacked, and even murdered.
Got any examples? I live in the Midwest and while yes major highways are the main roads obviously, there are always smaller state/county roads as well.
Some of which are 45+ mph with no sidewalks, never mind bike lanes. Hop on Google maps and see for yourself, they are hardly rare.
Speed limit isn’t everything, I’m way more worried about traffic levels than speed.
All about the likelihood of encountering an idiot/asshole, less about whether they hit you at 25 vs 45
