Moses,
LOL! . . Same problem on the island, where I live. These jokers come here in packs to impede the little traffic that is here.
One thing I learned about the wanna-be cyclist, which I discovered back when commuting on bike myself, is that they really will hold there ground in the presence of a following Mercedes, etal (implied: "squish me and I'll sue you--you pig"); BUT, when confronted by another (faster) cyclist, who is about to muscle past, they
always pull to the right with the simple words of
"on your left".
I find it stupifying that they
hog the road when cars need to pass, but pull right over for the (narrow) fellow cyclist. . ..I guess they think they'll get a gimps of Lance Armstrong, if they yield.
Oh, my wife bought me a bike-bell for the car
-- it helps with the
"on your left" authenticity. . . it also helps if the words are hurried -- like you're breathing hard.
