Yes they do!

They turn others against us - we are perceived as a community.

Dr-Chars , a mountain biker who lives in Bristol, says it's inexperienced cyclists, not skilled riders who choose to do reckless things

Not always inexperienced...

Out on a ride one day with a buddy, we were joined by a 'bolshy-bikey'...

I was 30-40m in front. Bolshy and my mate were side-by-side chatting.

A car came up behind and Bolshy deliberately impeded an overtake and swore at the driver.

When the driver did manage to overtake, he cut in on me - missing me by inches. Scared the sh1t out of me!

I wanted to knock Bolshy-tw4t out - he seemed completely unconcerned that he had put me in danger.

And one more driver hates cyclists! :angry:

No, in now way is there is a relationship between what some people do and all. Personally, I do not buy it. The issues are much more deeper seated and if everyone was model cyclists - it would have not any difference whatsoever.
