Arrogant cyclists

[compo]

I just enjoy being scalped by roadies on the epping new road, makes me fell all warm and fuzzy inside while i pootle along on my evil hybrid cx bike thingy with two wheels...... ;-)

Is that going up the hill or down the hill?

up normally, as I ride up from charlie browns, and generally pick inclines all the way until i get to the firestation at woodford green, i am usually burnt out, once i get on the flat i get the old momentum going, they scalp me as the road starts to rise just past buckhurst hill, i cant complain though gives me more oomf to play catch up.. only did that once though.

I am a member of at least three cycling clubs. I only wear club kit from one and then only on a Friday. Will I die?

Yes. But correlation does not imply causation.

Yes. But correlation does not imply causation.

Are you related to Adrian Chiles Ray Mears?
Oh yeah, correlation does not imply causation

I don't normally go that far down, generally coming out on the Epping Road from either Rangers Road or at the Robin Hood roundabout, then straight through to Harlow. I am often scalped by roadies on the climb up (such as it is!).

Anyone who doesn't ride with a Brooks saddle isn't a real cyclist

I don't have a choice i live the down the bottom of the hills suppose i need to look at as my gain in the end, even though i hate bloody hills!

Anyone who has a Brooks saddle on a non touring bike.

YIPEE, I've arrived. I'm a real cyclist!!

 

[Pikey]

No, we're quick but even for quick riders an interloper who doesn't understand the rules of the ride can wreck it if they change the dynamic enough.

Yeah I'm with you on this...

A whole group of interlopers really wrecked my ride yesterday, all wearing the same kit, riding nose to tail.

Really fecked my dynamic as they overtook me.

Is arrogant? Is or isn't a true cyclist? - Help I'm loosing the thread .......
Time to quote The Rules especially
Rule #19 Introduce Yourself
and for 'silly little caps' -
Rule #22 Cycling caps are for cycling.
