Don't forget to bring a towel
It should be illegal for cyclists to ride 2 or more abreast. They wonder why they get run over with alarming frequency when they do dumb shit like that.

OMG.....held up for a few/seconds/minutes by cyclists......it really doen't get much worse that that....

Actually if you learnt to read at no point did I say they held me up. Their dangerous riding is my gripe.Originally Posted by Voltaire

As a "minority" road user (a.k.a. motorcyclist) I don't think we're doing ourselves favors by pissing of cyclists.
Legally they have as much right to use the road as we do.
Like us they may have to avoid shit at the side of the road, potholes etc and expect other vehicles to give them some space whilst passing.
Legally they can ride two abreast. I personally think that's a bit stupid coming around blind corners but I suspect many ride 2/3 abreast in an attempt to slow following cars down and force them to overtake properly rather than firing past at 100kph with 6 inches to spare..
Legally you should be able to stop in the distance you can see and therefore if you smack into one whilst cornering enthusiastically then you're up shit creek without a paddle.

How dare you!!! they never do that... do they?
I have to say that they are another minority like us, however we do kinda pay a little to use the road, and before anyone says they pay via their cars etc. so does everyone else with a second vehicle. I have no probem sharing the road with them, I just wish they would learn to ride in a way that does not bug so many other road users

I am afraid of knocking them off their bikes...... and I am afraid that sometimes I want to.......

Soooooory....I just thought it was a general moan about other minority road users.
Nearly as sad as the one about " no one stopped coz I had a flat tyre"......
I once had a truck take out the Birkenhead overbridge in front of me and had to wait for over 30 minutes.....bloody trucks...

Oh good another bike bashing thread...
I have a newish bike here that I'm supposed to ride to work for exercise. Bit sad about the weather since I bought it though.
It's the old story, if you don't like the way I ride get off the footpath.
Smarty pants... since ages ago
Cyclists are no different to motorcyclist's ... as both choose to ignore any law(s) they find "inconvenient" ... at the time ...

Double plus one.
I give them a little toot now days as I come up 50m behind them. It lets them know that I am there and to pull over. Works 90% of the time. Sometimes they are doing a rolling road block kind of thing. Then I just pass them at my convenience.
I saw some road rage a while ago, its going to court, but I saw a old grey retired granddad guy simply "owned" an very abusive Lycra lout, who didn't see it coming.
Just another leather clad Tinkerbell.

Yes very frustrating when bicycles take up too much of the lane and cause impediment to the flow of traffic behind them.
Cyclists, just like ALL road users need to be considerate of others. It is a privilege to use the roads, not a right.
SH16, Coatsville-Riverhead Highway and Kahikatea Flat Road are often awash with lycra-clad cyclists in their little groups and often arrogantly blocking lanes as they dawdle along at snail pace slowing everyone up.
Gits.

So do burglars.

The difference being that cyclists riding 3 abreast block the road; motorcyclists exceeding the speed limit or lane splitting free up the road. Personally, I find that to be a big difference.
