Is it time to start calling out bad cyclists?

Im saying no more.

What have I done?

I saw a lady cycling along in the gutter yesterday, alarmingly close to the kerb. Before I could say anything she clipped the kerb with a pedal and went flying over, landing on the pavement.

^ once did that in a Triathlon filtering left thru a gap that wasn't there but had been a moment previously. Somehow stayed upright, balancing still with my pedal jammed on the kerb.

Gently unclipped, waited for the vehicles to shuffle up, then carried on, cursing the riders who'd correctly filtered right and cut in later to get ahead.

Amazing how in the red mist of the race we (I) can make some pretty dubious decisions.

Hope the lady was ok.

Have to say, as my first post, that this is a truly useful thread! Top work.

Is that a state where people take responsibility for themselves? Isn't that a positive thing?

Bad cycling in a triathlon??

And your alternative suggestion would be what..?

Repped.

Also, these idiots who bomb through lights aren't around to hear the understandably irate mutterings of those they nearly hit and leave in their wake.

I never know where to look, wanting to hold a sign up saying "Not all drivers are good drivers either" or "They're not a cyclist, they're a yob on a bike."

Double-sided, rotate. Done.

Of course it is. Looks like bigringpiece has managed to shoot himself in the foot...

You cunts stop presuming your superior cyclists and STFU.

There he is!

Presuming yourself to be a better cyclist and preaching to others is not taking responsibility for yourself, more self righteous prick.

ask my friends, ask my friends. I would, I would, I would.

You talk the talk DJ, but you don't walk the walk, hence why you like internet forums so much. Match made in heaven for you.

She's a game girl!

I don't walk, I mince.

no surprise there

What's this talk that he talks, and what is this walk that he's supposed to walk? What are you blathering on about woman?

Double-sided, rotate. Done.
