Basse near Trreline Park? Could he have picked a busier place for a bike ride? In the Quarry area? Sheesh

The people on bicyles in the road also need to share the road. I've come across bicycle riders in the lane where the cars are driving, they refuse to move to the far right lane or the left. They are indangering their owm lives.
