Someone i know just posted the following
" XXXXX gets mad when cyclists ride on the road when there is a perfectly good cycle path right next to them. Why oh why????"
followed by several supportive comments from her friends!
AARRGH! how do i know such people?? i had no idea. what would you say to this. obviously i have to voice my immense annoyance, whilst being witty and not sounding like an idiot.
XXXX doesn't understand why someone who has never ridden on a cycle path finds them perfectly good. OK, they might be good for keeping people out of your way! Perhaps XXXX should try, and then might understand why lots of cyclists don't use them. Generally it's because they're slower than the road...
There are loads of car parks, why do people park on cycle lanes?
There are loads of 'b' roads- why do car drivers insist on using motorways.
YYYY gets mad when people drive cars everywhere, the roads are perfectly good for cycling on. Why oh why?
XXX needs to chill out. Poor motorist being held up by all those nasty bikes. Aaaw diddums.
bigyinn takes the win i think
