Is it just me or do others find this stuff annoying?
I think or amiable group of bimblers has been infiltrated by an increasingly vocal bunch of
cyclists, to the extent that the occasional warning regarding cars etc. is now an annoying continuous cacophony. Not happy with 'Car-Up' and 'Car-Down', the latest seems to be 'Car Passing' as well. Jeez.
Now warnings are fine, if they really are warning of something unexpected, but cars on the road and over-taking are not in the most part unexpected so to my mind we shouldn't have to announce every bloody car we come across. Sharp bends on narrow roads might be an exception for example.
Pothole warnings are fine.
Bollard warnings are fine if only for comedic value.
I am getting to the point that all this yelling is negatively impacting my enjoyment of group cycling.
What says the learned here before I put it to my fellow cyclists?
