Indeed, I know to aviod it now.

Whoah, I didn't say you said anything rude - just you stood up to them, which IMHO is good !

To be fair it took me a couple of goes to understand "Matthew actually said something to an individual that was indeed rude".

If you'd used 'who' instead of 'that' it would have been clearer, as it is, 'rude' appears to apply to a thing (the something Matt said) not a person (the individual)....

Same here. Sometimes grammar really does matter.

Yes, thats what I understood by the comment.

From the person who finds the roads dangerous so does't ride there.

Does experiencing a single unpleasant situation mean that you restrict your life because of unpleasant idiots?

I saw some thugs in town, do I stop going into town? No.
I was passed closely, do I stop riding on the roads? No.
I was burgled, do I stay in for ever? No.

Don't ever let ignorant knuckle draggers stop you doing whatever you want, or they have won.

Tsk, nasty people don't shop in Harrabs. Go there instead.

I got pushed in the small of the back by a middle-aged man in Harrods. I was so fed up I went to Greggs and dropped a sausage roll on the floor to re-enact Jurassic Park.

She is alright now. When we had lunch, it took our mind off things.

A lot to be said for the gin.....

If you find ignorant trolls on a cycling forum do you stop using it? Hell no, their igorance should be challenged.
