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.

That sounds pretty nice, but I'd just be happy with a system of protected trails where I live. I still ride but it can get pretty dangerous in some spots (this is why I ride with a camera and at least one means of self defense though, and a helmet of course).

I only bike with the dog on protected lines, definitely crucial!
