It's nodder season, the first sign of sunny weather and they come out in droves. Be prepared to have people push past you at traffic lights so they can get pole position, then dawdle away at wobble speed and block the road for all the other cyclists they've just pushed past.
My personal favourite is people who think big gears equates to faster riding. My knees ache just watching some of them pushing massive gears at 30 RPM. The look of confusion as you spin past them on a much lower gear keeps me amused all the way to work.
