if I read what utter bollocks you people wrote I would say cyclists are not really people.

 

These were really BIG people.

Oh, so you earned the right to laugh at them and show disrespect.......... do some reading on values and manners. Wow, this is gross!!!!

 

It seems your head has now gone fat, even worse than being a fat person.

So what, they are cyclists, one of us. It does not give you the right to go after them like a bunch of slobbering baying rabid dogs. No no no dogs are better than you lot, they are mans best friend!!!!!!!

Look buddy. They acted like idiots, people are having a small dig at them, they deserve it..... it comes with the territory.

By you calling people names, insulting them etc, you are doing exactly the same. By doing the same you lose your moral high horse.

 

You should know better than coming to the hub and ranting expecting people to NOT react. Take a chill pill, or sandwich whatever works for you.

 

I love a big cyclist........ nice draft.

It doesn't cease to amaze me how when a motorist, especially if it is a fellow cyclist behind the wheel, is shocked at the response he gets from blowing his loud hooter as he drives passed someone on a bicycle. Do you seriously expect a positive reaction?

I see 6 cyclists cycling inside the yellow line and one outside it. Bar the one guy not inside the yellow line, I don't really see the major problem here. Also, as a motorist and fellow cyclist, I expect you to have a bit more decency than to hoot at a person riding a bike. There is nothing more upsetting than a motorist driving past and hooting at you while you're on the bike. It annoys the crap outta me.

Don't see the problem. They inside the yellow line except for the one guy. Reading the posts it seems they being targeted for their size and not riding skills?

 

Yeah, couldn't see a problem either so just went with the size thing as well.

So, how dangerous is it really to ride in a bunch like that? From what I've experienced from a motorist's point of view when approaching a bunch like this is 1) yes its annoying, 2) I notice them, 3) I slow down and wait till its safe to pass. Not quite the same experience when cycling alone.

 

Statistically, I'm wondering if anybody can confirm this, but how many accidents have there been of cars knocking cyclists in a bunch vs the cyclist on his own?
