Fan in San Diego Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I sincerely hope that someday this rage translates to action translates to manslaughter translates to prison time. The word is full of idiots. Why single-out cyclists when we let women behind the wheel? For every dumbass-cyclist there are dozens of female drivers. Let's solve our problems big to small. Woman driver are expert compared to Asian drivers. Lets start at the worst problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuntheDamnBall Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Most cyclists hate the folks your descibing as well. In fact, there is a pretty specific way of doing things and traffic laws and interaction with cars is a serious matter. Im not in the mood to be riding in a paceline at 25 MPH and have me and 5 of my friends taken out by a truck becuase the schmuck taking the pull off the front decided to blow a light.. But the thing is....most car drivers expect all cyclists to obey the rules to a "T" 100% of the time. Alternatively, most cyclists expect car drivers to obey the rules to a "T" 100% of the time. That....will never happen. Humans are funny about that "100% correct behavior all the time" thing. It typically doesnt sit well. So we do out best. For example.....If i happen to be spaced out and BSing with two friends and we are three abreast and Im holding you up? Give a short toot on your horn and Ill be happy to snap to it, alert those in front of me "CAR BACK" and we will then drop back into a single file line. Then you can pass and we can all enjoy our day. Or...if Im riding along and youre making a left without your signal on and you bounce out in front of me becuase darnit...you just didnt know I was there because you were tuning your radio or chatting with your passenger? Ill just slow on down and let you go in front of me, or behind me, whichever works best. See how that works? Was that so hard? And stojan....you DO realize that those "tough" football players you love so much wear spandex knickers, right? Thanks for this. Was going to add a post but you hit all the important points. In Brooklyn biking has become a ridiculous fad, and I see all sorts of idiots yammering on their cell phones on their fixies, cutting left turns into the other lane, never following any traffic signals even when there is traffic. I hate people who give actual cyclists a bad name. And they usually never wear helmets, which is the dumbest thing I can imagine, especially in urban cycling.

Unfortunately they think they make up those rules as they go along and that all the subhumans in cars are only there to be sworn at and to admire their vibrant attire.

Harley type guys are the worst. However, crotch rocket drivers drive like a-holes, but they are not as annoying as Harley guys. Crotch rocket guys usually take themselves out so there is not much of a need to worry about them, but Harley guys are just d-bags. That is not saying every Harley guy is a D-Bag. An example of a Harley guy is a guy I work with. He drove a Honda almost 10 years, buys a used Harley roadster for $10k and starts bragging about how it is superior American product. Not a month later the motor is all messed up, it is in the shop and costs him $8 to get fixed and 6 months later gets it back and it is still not right. Another $1,500 later it is supposed to be fixed he says, but no one has seen him drive it in 6 months. He drives his old "turbo charged, high output Pontiac Grand Prix," yet looks like a fool because he bought almost anything he could find with Harley on it, regardless of what it was or the marked up price. He would go cruising anywhere he could find for hours on end, he'd get to stoplights and rev his motor up, looking around to make sure everyone noticed He was on a Harley Davidson. That is a D-Bag Harley guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Robbie....if you dontwant to drive your POS put put in the gutter and all the debris there, why should I ride my state of the art bike there? Loser. When I was younger I used to recycle my beer bottles. I'd put them back in the box, then drive around chucking them at bicyclers. Watching some middle aged douche in spandex & a helmet wipe out after catching a bottle to the face is possibly the funniest sight you'll ever see.
