Yeah,itd be one thing if they were using it for transport and actually not blocking traffic and being safe about it, but none of that is true. They all think they're Lance Armstrong or something, and its the tour de france. People have places to be!
That's the crux of it. They could ride on the sidewalk and slow down...or they could simply move over and let traffic pass. But they don't. It's some holy war to piss off as many people as possible while wearing spandex.
All the hardcore cyclists I've known are miserable insufferable people so it makes sense. Middle managers on their second or third marriages that hate their lives. There's plenty of sport out there that offers superior fitness and doesn't do damage to your prostate...but, whatevs.
