Does anybody hate bike riders as much as me? Bike riding in America has gotten way out of hand. These people really believe that they have the same rights as a car. The little gestures they do to let others know they are turning mean nothing to me…I didn’t learn that in driving school. So, if I hit you, I’m sorry. I’m in a safe, steel vehicle while you are on some scrap metal with two flimsy wheels. I’m already late for work, and now I have to slow down to 20 miles/hour because I’m scared that I’m gonna hit your dumb ass. Holla at a sidewalk, please! And, I hate those Saturday morning bike clubs!!! There will be like 50 of them fools all geared down, taking over the entire road and when you pass them, they give you the fucking look of death. This guy at my job rides his bike to work everyday…mmmm, that just wouldn’t work for me. And, it doesn’t work for him. In the summer, when the temperature reaches 90+ degrees and you hop off your bike and come in the office…you stink. You’re funky, and last I checked, our office does not have a shower. A couple weeks ago, it was probably about 30 degrees w/ a misty rain. This fool comes up into our weekly meeting fresh off his bike, all wet, cold, glasses all fogged up, and of course sits his ass down next to me. Why would you knowingly subject yourself to that? I was pissed and distracted the rest of the meeting. He rides his bike because he’s one of those “go green” mothafuckas. I’m all about preserving the environment, but I’m gonna have to do it from my car.

i so agree. bikes belong on the sidewalk. they cannot compete with a vehicle.

Tell me about it, you’re driving at like 10mph per hour because you don’t want to hit the biker but you have places to go. When you finally have enough room and whiz past him, he glares at you.

I couldn’t agree with you more! You should see how these fools act in Boston. The “adult” tricycles are worse than bikes though. Last time I checked, a car had four wheels and motor so get the hell out of my lane!

You’re lucky you don’t live in Portland OR where riding bikes has become the local religion. Remember when it was the Chinese who rode bikes? I’m afraid it’s the future you’re pissed about and the bike is the future for a lot of people.
