Well, it's impossible to reason with such superior intellect and well thought out arguement

molgrips - MemberI dunno, there could have been innumerable single cyclist opportunities in four miles, but no peleton overtaking ones.
If he posts a link to the road we could find out.
Was it box hill?
I'm going for a ride.
The next post is number 500. will he or she will win a prize?
Whoever makes the 500th post is right
congratulations ooOOoo you get an Audi being driven up your chuff for [s]4 miles[/s] [s]6.5km[/s] [s]400 yards[/s] 365.76m. It is being driven by the Queen or Elton John; you decide.
Has this thread got the legs for 600, or will it Chris Froome?
Seriously can we see this road or not?
I would just like to say that i hope most of you remember this thread the next time you are buzzing the back wheel of a slower rider on a trail.
Remember a trail is just like a road but for bikes, everybody has the sam status and the same rights to be there, and you should not expect the slower rider to pull over for you just cos you can go faster. 😉

You do realise we only have one description of the events?
Matt
I saw the Olympic Road race on Sat
They stayed in a big bunch and didn't let a stream of BMWs that were behind them past either.
I think the BMW drivers were into cycling too as they had bikes and wheels on the roof.
So maybe your bunch were racing in the 'limpics?
I'm outraged. I was just travelling along the information superhighway on my way to somewhere VITAL when I got stuck behind a slow-moving forum thread. Wretched thing dribbled on for 15 pages and no-one would pull it over and let me past. Made me late for some very important humorous cat pictures, it did. HAVE SOME CONSIDERATION.
I put my sensible thoughts down back in pages err whatever. This post is just to keep this going as it's clearly keeping some of us occupied.
Oh and Specialknees, can we please have the road in question?
Remember a trail is just like a road but for bikes, everybody has the sam status and the same rights to be there, and you should not expect the slower rider to pull over for you just cos you can go faster.
But if your in the middle of a long trail where you can move over to let a faster rider past its the polite thing to do. I do it for faster riders and the very few riders who are slower than me do it for me. It keeps the trails a happy place.
Obviously if your half way up or down a tricky section then you can't.
Its all getting a bit silly and personal now.
I just wanted a few other peoples views.
Your Right brooess, there could be more to it, could well be someone in the group had an accident or something.
Thanks for the comments everybody, I read them all and have taken all on board.
I may not be a better driver as a result but I will certainly be wiser.
