I really dislike cyclists on the roads.
They just get in the way far too often, through no fault of their own.
Having to slow from 60 to 15mph until its safe to pass is a pain in the arse.
City centres is a another thing altogether mind, that's fine.
I was forced to a standstill today for ages on my way in and then when we did get moving it was a slow painful trundle. It was the first time I have used my car in a while, I'm usually on the off-road cycle track flying along. There was a low loader with a crane one a rode that really was not suitable for it. Add in 2 double decker busses and everyone was doing around 15 mph with traffic building up.
At least when I encounter a cyclist, I can wait until safe and pass in a minute or less. Half an hour I was stuck behind these 3 diesel monsters.
It is not just cyclists who slow the roads down.
Corrected it for youI have that on the news.
I have seen cyclists do what some drivers would get pelters for.
Some (minority)Cyclists seem to think that they are above such things, some do anyway. Just like some motorists.
