Bicyclists are like religious zealots. They have found the one true religion (riding) and everyone should do it.

>>697049189
I have yet to see one that isn't an ass. Especially once they started taking lane space from roads to designate as a 'bike lane'. I'm fine with it if there's going to be one, but then build the roads for it, don't just repaint the lines and call it a day, it makes it harder on the drivers since now we have narrower lanes.

As a cyclist myself, I generally like them/us. I stay on the sidewalk though; no idea how others can stand to ride in the streets. My only problem is when people in the cars can't make up their minds if they're going to turn or not, so they don't use their turn-signals AND they stop their cars right in the crosswalks.

I hate their asses. here in Fresno, it's mostly tweakers/hobos that ride bikes all over the place. Cutting off traffic and running into shit since they have no brakes.

However, one time my best friend was riding and a bike and he got hit by a car. All he remembered was riding by the store than he woke up on some grass with his trashed bike next to him.

Witnesses said the guy got out and flung the broken bike to the side where my buddy was laying and took off. he incurred a minor concussion.

they did this over here and its a huge fucking nuisance now.

they NEVER ride the speed limit and are always riding on the actual white line instead of inside of it...some even wear shirts that say "the law is 3 feet" with an arrow pointing left.

and the ones that fucking look back and see you and the line of traffic behind you that they are holding up who just keep going and dont move over, but keep looking back every few seconds.

MOVE THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY, HOLY SHIT.

the only thing I ever was able to do to "get back at them" was when I was able to pass a whole fucking gang soon enough so that when I got to the end of the road I was able to start turning right but didnt actually pullout yet since there was traffic comming...the whole group had to come to a stop and wait for me to turn before they could go straight or even turn themselves

Cyclists are ppl. Some are asshats, some are allright.
The way trafic is built often fucks cyclists over tho.

But, you know, it burns fat (I you know that fat ppl are just a step above blacks), and it lessens the traficjams somewhat.
So I'm kinda fine with it.

It's not a big deal. You people just get mad because you have to pay extra attention and not act like you just own the road because you're in a car. Ok so what you've seen a few cyclists not follow the laws, people in cars do the exact same thing all of the time.

I think that as soon as they sit down on that bike seat,
they suddenly decide that the rules of the road don't apply to them

I clipped one on purpose once. He was riding in the middle of the street going slow as shit. I was behind him for a minute and just watched him blow through every single stop sign. It was dark and he had no blinker on the back of his bike. I just zoomed past him when I knew no one else was around and bumped him with my side view mirror. I didn't live in the area and drove a super popular car model with a generic color. I at least watched in my review mirror to make sure he got up. I don't feel bad about it at all

I work as an armored car courier and our trucks are diesel, I had a loaner for a day that had a shitty emissions system, and the entire day I punched the gas on bicyclists and people with their tops down or open windows.
It was fucking amazing.

Another day I had a truck with a broken washer fluid jet, it sprayed directly out the side, so at lights or in real slow speeds I would spray people stopped or passing us on the right.

Here in Bongland there is a much believed (by drivers) misconception that cyclists do not pay road tax and car drivers do. No such thing as road tax. Council tax pays for roads. Vehicle tax is a tax on vehicles. Staggers me that car owners do not know this or think I will believe them trying to bullshit me.

Certainly is some cunts who cycle. Typically on road bikes who think their flimsy helmets will save their life when they zig zag across the roads at 20mph. Morons.

I stick to cycle lanes. Am courteous, observant and only go on pavements that are wide and empty. Rare I do the last as for some reason this triggers car drivers enormously.

I don't have a problem with bikers necessarily, or bikers using the road even.

My problem is that although they use the road (as they are legally permitted to do in my state) they almost NEVER:
1) Use proper hand signaling, or any at all,
And
2) Almost NEVER obey traffic signage like stop signs, red lights, and oh fuck Yield signs forget about it.

You cannot have it both ways bike fags. Use proper signals and obey street signage or GTFO the road.

Where I'm from it's illegal for cyclists to ride the sidewalk. It's called a sidewalk, not a sideride.

That being said, many ride the sidewalk often. I love bicycling, though. For anything less than 10 mi it's much more fun than driving. But cyclists should observe vehicular traffic law - too many of them do not understand that they are a vehicle and not a pedestrian, legally, when on the road.
>>
>>697058564
Well, in my city, not everywhere has biking lanes. Which is kind of stupid, really, but I guess it's tied to socioeconomics: the wealthy side of town vs the working side vs the hood. Cops are pretty chill here, only really going after drug dealers and people who get into fights/attack private property. I jay-walk, ride on the sidewalks, zip through traffic, whatever. I'm edgy as fuck.

Most streets here don't have share lanes either. I think that drivers just know how to share the road with cyclists. Honestly the worst bicycle/car accident I've ever heard of was from somebody opening their car door, after parking, right in front of a friend of mine while he was cruising along. He ended up fracturing his skull from the impact with the door frame.

That's always been a fear of mine, going down a hill and going face-first into the pavement by someone opening their door. That and riding on the sidewalk and running some kid over who's exiting a store. These days, I don't have a bike anyway, so I guess I dodged a bullet there.

As a cyclist (just to get places cause the public transport here is piss poor) I generally dislike them.

The assholes who need to put on their dumbass skin-tight onesies with sports logos just to go for a bike ride so they can show off their $1500 dollars piss me off. They're usually rich white cunts, they are aggressive and rude.

The people who just need a bike to get from point A to B are fine. It's the cunts who give cyclists a bad name.

I don't own a bike but they're pretty useful despite you not being able to take them on trains.
Having a car is a huge pain in the ass here so bikes are a lot more useful unless you live out in the sticks where the trains don't run.

It's often less safe for bicyclists to be on a sidewalk. Vehicular cycling is about being seen and being obvious; that is, clearly communicating with other road users as to your intentions (stopping, turning, etc). On sidewalks, bicyclists can present a danger to pedestrians and, if sight lines aren't good at intersections and curb cuts, may collide with a driver who didn't see them.

Of course, vehicular cycling is starting to die out as a philosophy. It's still needed as infrastructure hasn't developed well enough to separate the modes of travel, but down the road I think everything will be separated on most busy urban roadways.

Been riding my bike around since HS. Still no license at 25, and chill on my cruiser around town.

Things I notice that ruin it for me are the biking faggots in skin tight spanks thinking they are high grade military tanks. See them all the time doing 15 in a 35 avg road, riding the fog line for no reason, riding in those faggot packs blocking the ENTIRE bike lane, and many other stupid things. They are honestly oblivious to both sides hating them, and always play the victim card when they fuck up. It's sad and pathetic.

On the flipside, drivers react to this, and never think it's an individual case. They treat all cyclists the same, by how ever many single encounters they had. This in turn can lead to incidents that create hostile drivers, thinking they are all like niggers, and asking to be taken out. One major thing they don't realize is when a bike rider hits a person or object going 8-10mph, it's a bump and bruise. For them, it's death.

I've not put myself in much danger, so I can't say how bad drivers are towards my biking. I've had people speed ahead of me, only to drift in front of me, slamming on their brakes to make it into a parking lot. If anything, road cyclists and drivers both fail to indicate signs and laws at the same level. Cyclists should never trust a driver to "do the right thing" and always expect them to accidentally kill you, like wise with drivers to cyclists (void the death part).

I usually ride around town because I live in a small town. I ride on a bicycle track wherever possible and when I'm on the regular road, I try to be as undisruptive as possible.
Most other cyclists are cancer. They don't bother to signal when they're about to turn, they ride in the middle of a road, they ride next to each other while carelessly chatting, they stop right next to the car when the light is red, they ride on a busy road while there's a bicycle track literally two meters away from them. The old women are the worst. They get to a intersection, jump off of their bicycle and WALK through the intersection because they can't while on the cycle for some reason.

I fucking hate when bikers go slow as fuck but still go to the front of the intersection at a red light, so that all cars have to pass them AGAIN.
I hate bikers that don't put their foot on the ground when stopping but try (and ultimately fail) to keep balance while stopped.
I also hate bikers riding next to each other like they own the fucking road.

I hate a lot of stuff that car drivers do, too, like not using the turning lights or suddenly swerving into my lane because they can't fucking wait for the car in front of them to leave their lane when turning.

Oh yeah, don't get me started on pedestrians. Those fucking MINDLESS IDIOTS, completely oblivious to their surroundings, thinking it's ok to cross the street in heavy traffic, without looking. Got a fucking death wish, braindead jerks?

I wouldn't care if they just got out the way. Same thing with normal car drivers.
>Le speed limit is 80km
>Le me on bike still in my own lane 160km through corner still leaving atleast 5km room for error not even trying to push fast and slowing down where needed as it's a road not a race track can't be too silly it has to be the right place and right time
>riding for 15 years including racing

>le normal driver can't even do 80km and somehow manages to crash 20km under the speed limit and complains anyone who goes over it is dangerous

>le seriously how the fuck do these people manage to crash they are retarded

>then le cyclists don't even get me started on how stupid they are

I follow the laws, I'm just saying that driving a giant death machine means that you should be more responsible. Should I have to be responsible for the actions of others?

Honestly, they should just up any traffic infraction done while driving a car to attempted murder. It's almost like shooting a gun into a crowd.

Never seen anybody ghost riding here in Fresno, but I do see a metric fuckton of hobos riding bikes with their jimmy-rigged carts behind them piled high with bags of trash/recyclables. Wouldn't be so bad if half the overpasses had sidewalks or bike lanes on them. I come over the Ashlan overpass across the railyard almost every day and if one of them is on there they'll hold up all kinds of traffic.

The way I see it the more incompetent retards crash and die the better it's natural selection at work and if they kill a few cyclists at the same time even better.

let them ride, but they need to realize cars coming and going, traffic, type of road they're trying to ride, and being self aware when riding.

ive seen cyclists just ride as they please on busy roads with no extension or not even a white line and they have no clue that cars are behind them at all.

Just this week went to the beach. Some guy was on the road on roller blades just swaying left/right like he was all alone... and it was 3pm traffic on the island with 1 damn road. He never once looked back to see why nothing was passing him.

When I'm driving my car, there's nothing I hate more than cyclists. When I'm riding my bicycle, there nothing I hate more than cyclists.
