Interesting (if slightly ridiculous) study out of the University of Bath, in
which a guy recorded the amount of space cars gave him while passing him.
When he was wearing a helmet, he was given less room, and was actually hit
twice in the process of collecting the data.
He also donned a long wig, presumably to make himself look female, and that
caused drivers to give him even more room.

Oh, and stop stealing my stuff from out in front of the Christian Science
Center, assclowns! If anyone has a spare rear mountainbike wheel with 7
speed cassette, I'd be most happy to receive it.
