bozos trying to pass bicyclists

  1. The good weather brought out all kinds of stupidity.
    Twice today on a short ride, I almost got run off the
    road by somebody traveling the opposite direction
    on my half of the road trying to pass a cyclist on a
    downhill grade.

    The bicyclist, because he wants to go fast downhill
    starts riding toward the center of the road. The motorcyclist
    and/or sports car behind him looses patience and
    swings into the uphill half of the road to get past.

    All of this on a blind curve of course. Be very ready
    for this kind of idiocy now that the warm weather's
    here.

    I hate this too..I really love the ones that ride 2 abreast. The
    phrase "Die in a fire." comes to mind.


    "Share the road, man" And they say motorcyclists are the crazy ones?

  3. I didn't much appreciate the guy on a Triumph
    trying to get past a bicyclist on my side of the
    road either.

    Basically spring brings out the clueless twits
    piloting all forms of two and four wheel
    vehicles.
