[QUOTE="JonDough, post: 2625946, member: 24427"] Hmmmmmmmm 1. I drive a car, truck, motorhome, motorcycle, etc..etc...and don't see it as "anti driver" when someone posts something about someone in a vehicle being a douche..LOTS of vehicle drivers are idiots....so why should people complaining about douche bike riders be taken as anti bicycle? 2. I think riding bikes is great....its good for the folks riding them, saves fuel, noise, etc.... 3. BUT........... It is VERY VERY true that there are groups of drama queens/kings, Prima Donna's, and those who think just because they spent 5 grand on a bike and fancy duds that they own the roads. THOSE are the turds I can't stand. They see or hear ya coming THEN spread out over the whole lane...and go 8mph in a 45. Most of the time in a no passing zone. REALLY??? "we're watching out for our safety"....********...you're being a dick. If you're watching out for your safety, move over, signal to others and signal to the vehicle driver to make sure he sees you. And maybe try waving once in a while...might work wonders. I've had conversations with some of these idiots...and they are snotty holier than thou's. Now...I also personally know some other bike riders that are really cool folks and when you see them riding they acknowledge that in fact its up to THEM to make sure they do the right things on the road and get along with motorists as much as it is the motorists job. Anyways...if you are one of the ********* riders....then own your douchebaggery and change your ways. If not LIVE WITH THE RIDICULE...LOL. If you're one of the good biking folks...THANK YOU MUCH!!! : ) [/QUOTE]
