Local traffic cop who gives a road report every morning told a story of coming up behind two bicycles riding side by side blocking the traffic flow, which is illegal in Oregon.
He gave a little beep of his horn, and one of the cyclists gave him the finger over his shoulder without looking.
He said, that's when he hit the over heads.
That rude FOOL got himself a citation.
I LOVED it!!!

If people get 'this' worked up over folks on bicycles, they likely have deeper seeded issues than 'just' folks on bicycles.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

yes I slow down for folks on a bike, get pissed when the bikers stay 4 or 5 abreast on a country road and won't move over and even more so when they have no give a crap about what you are traveling with because they are having their merry way. No I don't get worked up about bikes but most of the riders are dipshits

The only dipshits(on peddle bikes) we have around here are out of staters.
Locals are way too smart to ride on the highways.
Spandexed out of state 'tards?
Not so bright.....

A German colloquialism for bicycle is drahtesel, which translates to "wire donkey".

The drive from Cut Bank to Williston sucks bad enough, it would take a very "special" sorta fella to want to peddle it -- especially in a clown suit

I was wearing a Wolverine flannel shirt and some Dickies carpenter trousers. I just found my 2X cycling shorts, since I can squeeze into them, I'll wear them tomorrow on my next ride if it isn't raining.
Managing weight, blood pressure, and pre-diabetes. I'm going to ride the bike until I can try cross country skiing again.
Riding a bike beats spending even more time walking for the same effect.

Bicycling is easy on the knees too as long as you are spinning rather than pushing big gears.

just finished riding bikes around might be the first time I ever rode on a high dollar bicycle with nice grips, a comfortable seat and good shifters. Makes all the difference in the world fyi here is a story on pool noodle man https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/20...eets-safer-for-him.html?campaign_id=A100
have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues, can you bend them guitar strings

As a gentleman I always brought up the rear when riding in mixed company.
Never take life to seriously, after all ,no one gets out of it alive.
