    Also worth noting not are people on a bicycle are “cyclists”, just like not all people in a car are “race car drivers”.

    There’s various types of bicycle, such as riding for pleasure, casual riding, entertainment, or racing. Not to mention the various ages of bicyclists. These distinctions are important, just as much as safe well designed infrastructure for all roadway users, weather they are on foot, or a bicycle, or in a car.
