Deliberately posting inflammatory and baiting comments / questions in order to get a rise out of people in a forum.

The clever ones are the red herrings.

Seemingly innocent and genuine.....like the udderside

Now, if you were a really good troll you would have put something about 29er in. ;)

I think it should read: "... I ride a 29'er Spez. It squeaks when I ride against traffic."

On a more serious note to the current tone of this thread.

 

Why on earth does every runner in the world feel that they can run on the wrong side on the road. I nearly got run over twice on my morning ride today when groups of runners were running on the wrong side of the road and wouldn't move to let me through. 

 

I'm not saying they have to get out of the way because I am a cyclist, but surely if you are going to run in the wrong direction you should at least give way. This has become a recurring annoyance for me. 

 

Would like to know what the rest of you think about this...

Like armpies said, when you are a runner, you are a pedestrian, then you belong on the other side. But it is foolish and selfish not to yield to oncoming traffic and that includes cyclists.

If you ride a Specialized and it's squeaking it must be your knees ;)

Ah, I didn't see that post. Thanks for clarifying.
