Now, I used to race bicycles competitively when I was in college, running centurions, sprints, and velodromes. I rode every day, at least 15 miles. Often much more. My bicycles were worth close to a year's salary for me back then.
I worked as an assistant manager at a professional bicycling shop and was really into it, so I'm not against bicycling or bicyclists.
Until they start thinking their crap doesn't stink and they decide to take over. that's when I start caring about them as much as they care about me. That's when I start being as courteous to them as they are to me. When they think they own the road they need to be reminded that isn't the case. When they start thinking they are better or more important than motorists because they are enviro-tards, they need to be corrected.
Same goes for anyone else, as soon as they stop caring for others I stop caring for them.
Just like the motorcyclists with drag pipes. They wanna be obnoxious, I can too.
"Sorry, can't split lanes right here, isn't enough room. Take your loud pipes and shove them somewhere else."
You don't care about disturbing the peace and denying people their right to reasonable peace and quit, I can deny you the courtesy of sharing my lane, or any other courtesy you THINK you are entitled to. You aren't.
a boot print on my door hurts me less that a tire track across their skid lid hurts them.
