I have tried to preach to my fellow cyclists about being morons.
Some of them get it. Some don’t. Most of my pals are not fools. They recognize the futility of trying to resist a two ton motor vehicle piloted by someone with a bad attitude and a filthy mouth.
Personally, I try to avoid pissing off the people in cars. They may not run me down but the next person they encounter on a twenty pound steed is gonna have a bad day when we do stupid stuff.
Stay save FV. Watch yer six.
By the way, I chickened out at the bottom of that hill, due to hi-speed wobble. I think 56 or 57 was there. Plus that stop sign came up really fast. Still remember the name of that, Roberts Road in upstate New York. Had a 30 mph tailwind that day, probably a 7% grade. It's really hard to get the bike moving that fast. I was only around 30 yrs old back then, 20-some years ago. I wouldn't try that again unless I had full leathers and a full-face helmet. :P Cheers.
I’ve never met a rude cyclist and I aways try to give ‘em extra room on the road.
It just bothers me - you never know what they’re going to do next. Sheer mass and a four-wheel stance mostly keeps cars from doing unexpected things, but you can never tell with bicyclists.
