I just hate the bike racing people who think public traffic is their personal sporting grounds. Meaning they don’t have to follow the rules of the road because it might mean they don’t get to break their speed record that day. Or that close down entire roads just so they can race one another.
They should find a hobby that isn’t in public traffic. Imagine if tennis closed down train tracks just so they can use the train tracks to put up their net.
How many roadies do you encounter that they slow you down for more than a minute a day really? Way to channel your hate i guess, i know how irrationally angry it can make you to sit in a car.
I assume this is unpopular but I’ve decided not to get annoyed if I see people breaking the rules of the road. Sometimes I think “what a prick” or “he’s going to kill himself doing that” but it’s not worth anything more.

How often do you actually get caught behind a crit race? Maybe twice a year tops in some cities? Where I live marathoners fuck up traffic far worse and more often but somehow they don’t arouse the same vitriol.
Cyclists have every right to be on the road. We pay the same taxes, but this attitude is why I get menace passed and have coal rolled on me every couple of weeks. Show a video of acyclist following the law but getting hit on a bike and the comments section is people saying they deserved it. If I ride my mountain bike on trails away from cars the horse people and hikers get up in arms. I guess I should just fuck myself, eh?
I love cyclists. Always let them go first.

FYI as a cyclist this is super annoying and just leads to politeness chicken. Just go when it’s your turn.
