    i fkin hate road cyclists. heres a few questions

    not aimed at you directly just cyclists in general BTW

    on busy narrow roads why do you ride 2+ abreast

    I realise that going down hill you go fast which probably feels great but in a car your fast isnt so you end up holding up traffic can you at least keep to the side of the road so we can get past

    when going up hill slowly you wobble around and take up most of the road can you please just stop and get out of the way and maybe push the bike uphill on the curb?

    at traffic lights you zigzag in and out of traffic to push your way to the front then get pissy when we accelerate when the lights go green. why wont you take your fking turn and queue like the rest of us.

    can you please keep to the side of the road and not get angry when we overtake you at speed cuz the gap left on the road has been narrowed by you!

    • I do a lot of cycling on trail networks. You guys on the road have a fuckin' death wish.section_014
    • I've done a lot of city driving and city biking. I don't think either are much of an annoyance to each other. It's the pedestrians that are a constant annoyanceCyBrainX
    • Pedestrians walk into a street without looking, try to listen to a car as if a bike never existed and when they're startled they bitch about crazy bikers.CyBrainX
