Dear Road Bike Guy,

Dear Road Bike Guy in the lycra and helmet and 80's pink and purple cycling windbreaker [that would be ironic and hip if it wasn't on you],

Today you past me on my right and stayed very close to me, then you started to get us trapped behind a bus as we came upon a messy intersection. I wouldn't have even noticed you had you not trapped me in. I slowed, then passed you on your right and got out of the traffic trap you stuck yourself in.
You might remember me as I am the perfect stranger that as I rode off you yelled "Stupid Cnut!" at. I kept riding a bit thinking to myself, "I wonder who he's yelling at?" I looked back and you were looking at me muttering to yourself.
I slowed down, let a few cars pass between us, and came up beside you, "Were you calling me that name?" I said.
You replied ironically in your gruff and grumpy growl "I was catching up to you all those last blocks and now you think we're going to race, now bugger off you stupid cnut..."
"Excuse me? You're actually serious? Sir, I just slowed down to talk to you and slowed down to pass you, racing didn't even occur to me"
"Oh just leave me alone!!!!!"
"You just called me, a stranger, a woman, 'a stupid cnut' and you expect me to leave you alone?!?! Welcome to the race b*tch, I'm not leaving you alone now, you best pedal faster...."

You did! Ha! Who's the Stupid Cnut now.

All my love,
Roxy

This guy sounds like a bit of a silly sausage!

so who won the race?

roxy your like a mentalist or summit

sounds like you had a strange day?

sounds a bit like a guy that tried to race me today but he didnt call me a stupid cunt, he got in front of me and then turned around to look me dead in the eyes, i didnt know what he meant and just slip streamed him untill he realised what i was doing and tried to undertake this guy to get away from me, only the guy he was under taking was moving towards the curb and he got sorta traped between the curb and the other guy, meanwhile i just went the over way round the two of them and carried on my journey.
but seriously what an idiot calling someone he doesnt know a cunt for not wanted to take part in his ego tripping race on the commute home.

more importantly, (as aiden pointed out) did you win?

people trying to pass on the inside pisses me off, nearly hit some roadie twat at RP after I was pulling in from overtaking some slowies with a baby on a seat, I gave them plenty of room cos they looked wobbly and Mr Road flies up the inside just as I'm moving back in.

I shouted to him, but he didn't look back..

Next one is getting a request for an apology.

Other cyclists = scum

No, it would just be wrong whatever.

So come on, who owns a pink and purple windbreaker? 'Fess up

i really want the windbreaker.... roxy next time you see him you are required to steal it for me 110%.

I think you need to ask that question on C+, or whatever it's called now.

oh yes.

although, won't this bloke still be using an Amstrad to type letters, and thinks the internet is "just a rumour" ?

LOL roxy.. "having a chat" is much cooler than just forcing him into the gutter. Oh, how I love the clatter of bike and rider on tarmac..

"So come on, who owns a pink and purple windbreaker?" That's me out.

75% of cyclists are fucking dickheads, it is a crying shame.

hence the high sales of arrospokes?

i got a called 'a fucking cunt' for trackstanding once. i took it as a compliment.

I would say it is a better rate than the general population.

pj i got a called 'a fucking cunt' for trackstanding once. i took it as a compliment.

I bet he wrote the other side of the story on Bikeradar.
