Stripped threads. It's been quite a bad afternoon in that respect. :-(

People who must feel really insecure about their bike / speed.

They claim that any one who has a more expensive bike / is faster than them 'looks down on them'

Probably the same people who complain that someone 'didn't wave back to me'

[Dora]

Peds who jum a mile when you pass them. Despite the fact that you've been shouting and ringing your bell and riding along at walking speed for half a mile.
Peds who jump out into the road then stand there screaming as you do everything in your power not to mow them down.
Clubs who won't have me just cause I'm a gurl and won't wear lycra.

Retards cycling dangerously in rush hour traffic
All of the new student cyclists who have no idea of the traffic conditions and complete unfamiliarity with where is safe to gun it and where holding back gets you there quicker

1) Cyclists who don't know what a bell's for and just hover behind pedestrians expecting them to know they're there/pushing them to the side.

2) Cyclists at night in the middle of London with just the lights on their bike but no bright, reflective clothing.
