Then, in Iowa, there is RABRAI, once is enough. I rode RAGBRAI in 2016. I had a blast, and the people from Iowa were wonderful. The event pumped a lot of money into many of those small towns. This may be my favorite RAGBRAI pic. These girls were so stinking cute and happy to be making money. I think I got one of the guys nipple hairs in my scrambled eggs. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/MH2mfxVk/13732057-10208668210377180-8780410248701994253-o.jpg)

10 pages. It's not hard to acknowledge that most people don't like bicyclists. Nobody likes being inconvenienced in an way, regardless of the time frame that occurs. Prome example is that I fuggin hate semis. I understand their need but that doesn't stop my unreasonable side from pissing and moaning about how slow they are, can't see around, accelerate like a snail and congest the highways. It is what it is. The semi isn't the problem, the government regulations are.

Paul, we went to a farm sale, if we'd bought the tractor----.

I used to see that all the time when I drove the big rig. In my case, I was governed at 65, and a guy is passing me, he is governed at 65.2
It will take him 2 minutes to pass me and there will be 15 cars backed up behind him, cussing us out. This is on the flat interstate, I-10 in Texas speed limit 75.
My solution: When the passing truck got even with my rear bumper, I knocked off the cruise and slowed to 60 mph. Left lane guy passed me in ten seconds and got ahead of me in the right lane. Left lane clear for cars. And I lost 15 seconds of driving time. Gee, do that 8 times a day, and I have lost 2 minutes. Heartbreaking.
About half the truck drivers would be polite in the right lane, like I was, and the other half were a**holes. Or else just stupid hard to tell. I wondered why those drivers that are in the right lane wouldn't lift off for a few seconds. Hell, if someone is slow passing me when I am driving an auto, I'll lift off. Have passed a few on the shoulders. 2 semis play who has the bigger dick for 5 miles and the first clear straight shoulder becomes my lane.

I drive about 30,000 miles a year, here to the Canadian border, here to Missouri, wherever. A lot of my driving is on two lane, rural roads but also in town here… I can only recall once in the last several years that I was held up a bit by cyclists. There was a large organized group on the two lane going to the gun club. Probably cost me five minutes.
I think there are some people on here who must lead miserable, unhappy lives. If they get so cranked up over something as innocuous as bicyclists how do they handle the kind of real problems many of us face daily? What can it be like for their wives (if they’re still married) having some having some whining complainer around all the time?
Of course, these threads also always bring out the Walter Mitty, Rambo in their own minds, badasses…always amusing… when it's every week , day or multiple X's a day ..

I’d much rather encounter a cyclist on the road than one of those flat billed retards driving a truck with a Carolina squat. That is some dumb scheit. Around here your constantly held up by tractors, combines, Mennonite buggies, school busses, Mennonites on bikes, old ladies driving 10mph under etc…

About a 50 series with 2" of sidewall. Wonder how their paint looks after a year!?!?

We have little pieces of farm land scattered about and I hate holding up traffic when we have to move large equipment around.
Try to plan our moves early in the morning.
The fact that some people are so self important as to create delays and safety hazards in the name of recreation is all I need to know about that individual.
Paul is a self righteous bi-sexual idiot.

The only time that bicyclists bother me on the road is when they are involved in an organized century ride and feel empowered to ride 8 or 10 abreast across both lanes of a 2 lane road. Some of them will even swerve across the center line when you're passing, as if they were daring you to hit them.
