I've said it on this forum before, so I'll be brief:
On this continent - unlike the test of the planet - motorcycling is in the decline. The reason for this is simple: the activity is predominantly for recreation, as opposed to the transportation.
Decline of activity is to the detriment of all of us, including those that practice it exclusively for recreation. The revival depends on the increased use of motorcycles for transportation, and lane sharing is the main reason more riders will view motorcycle travel as a preferable mode of transportation. Thus, lane sharing should be viewed as a desirable phenomenon, even by those that have no particular desire to partake in the practice.
