Hey all. I ducked out of work early yesterday and got about 10 dirt miles in before having to pick my wife up at the train station. 
Then I almost killed a roadie on the way. Dillhole blew right threw a stop sign in front of me forcing me to squeal the tires slowing down, then flipped me off like it was my fault that I almost hit him. 
I'll never understand road cyclists, and by road cyclists I mean people on bikes who ride on the road, not just roadies. Why do they think the have universal right-of-way? I could rant forever on this, but it's not worth it. The sun's shining and I'm already looking at this afternoon's workload to judge the potential for an early split and more dirt before dinner.

I had a rant to give about this the other day. I waited until I finally unclipped to keep from falling over waiting on some chick to go at a stop sign. If there is a car, I stop completely. If not, I will roll slowly. Most of my friends just blow them, and that pisses me off. It makes everyone hate all cyclists. It sucks. :mumble:BikeGeek said:<snip> I'll never understand road cyclists, and by road cyclists I mean people on bikes who ride on the road, not just roadies.

Roadies in my neck of the woods (and by roadies, I mean roadies) seem to think traffic laws do not apply to cyclists. I have assume the laws are not applicable in Farmington Valley.
practice for a Huffy throw of courseEcho said:
Someone's going to get killed in my neighborhood. Almost every evening between 20 and 50 roadies use the neighborhood for a group ride. It looks like a great ride with all those hills around and it's certainly cool to see that many roadies in a tight pack zipping down the road. On the other hand, they completely disregard all stop signs and other traffic and fill the entire travel lane making it impossible to get by. I'm all for the "we're not blocking traffic, we are traffic" thing, but there's also something called courtesy when you're not even close to the posted speed limit.loco said:

That's funny you say that, stosh. We were down there, and I met a guy who came over on NIna, Pinta AND the Santa Maria. Freakshow, man.
Wull, I ride on the road and almost got myself into a situation like that the other day. Misjudged a light change and wound up flat-tracking halfway into an intersection on U.S. Route 7 while trying to stop with those stupid skinny tires.BikeGeek said:...Then I almost killed a roadie on the way.

I don't, however, flip off other people when I fuxor up, on a bike or otherwise.

I think she meant $20
Same diff.douglas said:
I'm guessing this guy misjudged how fast he was going. It looked like he intended to blow through the sign and make the right turn hugging the curb. Instead he swung really wide and ended up in front of me. I'm not sure why he flipped me off.johnbryanpeters said:
Probably because he was and is an asshat. An assitudehat?BikeGeek said:

Well.......doo-doo head---I didn't GO there to smoke weed....that part just kinda happened. We were flinging the frisbee around the city all day. Just walking around, chucking the disc through traffic, going to Chinatown and marveling at how much taller I was than EVERYONE else there. We ended up at Wash. Sq. kinda by accident. Met John Goodman in the P&G bar around 2am that night as well. Nice guy. Loved the fact we were from NC and just up here tooling around.
You doofus. :eviltongu
By the way.....what's the longest any GMT thread has stayed active? Any gone into the next day? That could get confusing.
some get sparked back to life, when N8 is feeling crafty.

Heh heh.....NO, stosh. Not a hippy. Wouldn't go over too well here in the South. But, just like every other redneck down here, I like to have good time. I DO like the Allman Brothers, though. I hope that doesn't count.
Hippy...........I think that's the first time I've ever been asked that.
This thread is a freakin riot!!! Good times. Thanks for starting these things, Stosh.
See thats why I dont' think I would fit in well in the south. While I don't smoke weed or listen to Janis I live around woodstock and listen to the radio station out of wood stock. My boss is an old hippie and I think I tend to think along similar ideas.Greyhound said:Heh heh.....NO, stosh. Not a hippy. Wouldn't go over too well here in the South.

You'd fit in fine, my man. We define laid-back down here. We're just not parading around in bellbottoms and wearing patchoulli oil. Well......maybe in Asheville.
Take a trip down sometime.......we brought Binary Visions over to the South-side---it could work for you too.
Hmmmmmmmm......that last line reminded me of the "Outsiders" for a sec.
"Can you see the Sunset good from the South side, Ponyboy?"
"Yeah."
".....Well, you can see it good from the North side too."
......Stay gold, Ponyboy, stay gold.

Saw one of these while riding yesterday.
I didn't stop to ask it if it had stolen any blenders full of hot lesbos stolen from a hippy though.

Excellent summation, jdschall!! Funny stuff.
Although I feel like I've been "tagged" as a hippy now. Not fair.
Damn you, stosh!!

Yeah - folks around here think that a mass means the laws don't apply. It's stupid.
Yeah. It happened to me yesterday. I had to threaten DBR with abduction and subsequent disappearance to make it stop. So far so good. Good luck to you - hippy of the day.Greyhound said:Excellent summation, jdschall!! Funny stuff.

Just to be a jackass I'm going to bump this thread for you Greyhound.
Bump. Hee Hee.
Oh no.......I had a dream about this last night.. Freakin' wok was chasing after me cause I burned a soy sauce stain into it!!!! 
I ain't right.
I wish I still had enough hair for a hippy-do. .....'Bout all I could manage now is a bad BikerFox imitation.
