How can you be this smug when literally anyone, even a 90 lb little girl can just decide to end your life if they feel like it? Cyclists are so vulnerable, you would figure that they would be more humble considering how weak they are in literally any potential exchange involving a car. That's why I hate these fuckers. They are so pretentious and have such a fake aire of superiority when they are doing something really lame and they have no leverage of any kind
>Does something extremely dangerous >Knows that it is in fact, extremely dangerous >Continues to do something extremely dangerous on a regular basis >This fact alone makes cyclists not only a liability to themselves and everyone around them, but also makes them tremendously stupid.

If cyclists were real Chad's they'd just accept the danger instead of bitching about it on Instagram. This is why skateboarders get infinitely more pussy than you ever will. It's dangerous and not cool

Who are these people bitching? Must be some middle aged fag.
Yeah, because passing a cyclist is an additional stress I'd rather not have to deal with in my life. Most people don't actually want to hurt others, you know. Cyclists are narcissists though, so they can't understand even though they drive themselves.
Yea, because they're fat, weak and out of shape. Seeing a cyclist reminds them of how weak they are in comparison, and it drives them mad.
Notice how, whenever the topic is brought up, they never compare their own selves to the cyclists, and they always compare the car to the cyclists. >haha nice job deadlifting 500 lbs, my forklift can lift 40000 lbs
Yea, cool beans dude, let me know how cool your car is when your obese ass gets his first stroke.
I hate the gay cyclists that do top speed on footpaths or don’t even give the courtesy of sharing what side they are on behind you. They treat pedestrians on foot paths like they treat motorists on the road.
Unfortunately for you, shooting an Akkar Churchill 612 doesn't make me fall over from the recoil like it would your stickbug ass. Your bitch ass couldn't hurt anyone capable of benching 1pl8, armed or not.

The cyclist, specifically the lanky lycra sporter, is an asshole who helps the garden gnomes instigate the forced "walkable" megacity hive concept. All of the shilling of "mah heckin walkable cities" is part of a psyop to get normies conditioned into living in eternal rentoid pods and owning nothing. An example of this is the 15 minute city concept being implemented in the UK. You won't be leaving. Not with an APC or even a motorbike chasing you on your dinky goybike should you choose to be a bad gentile and try seeking refuge to a freer rural area. Car sales and oil trades dying down are an acceptable risk for the Talmud finally coming true. The last nail on the coffin showing how this psyop is the execution of human autonomy is how the NotJustBikes channel isn't silenced for his "rebellious" ideas but is instead unrestricted monetization from garden gnometube, and is even paid by straight up NWO organizations to make videos sucking off Amsterdam, Netherlands.
>NotJustBikes
Why would he be silenced? His content is simply focused on infrastructure, there's zero reason for his channel to be censured.
Cyclists are freedom fighters against the tribe, you're the ones filling their bank accounts with obscene gas prices, ~~*insurance*~~, road tax whatever. Get fucked.
Sounds more like the cyclist's problem of thinking they can go toe to toe with a 4000 lb hunk of steel going 55 mph than my problem of just trying to get home from work
>Various roads in Japan, the Republic of Ireland and the USA are all subject to minimum speeds. >Just as their maximum counterparts, minimum speed limits are designed to increase road safety. Instead of accelerating and braking, keeping vehicles above a certain speed helps to keep traffic moving. This is particularly important when stopping traffic may cause problems for emergency vehicles to get through: in tunnels, for instance. >Driving too slowly can also impede the safety of other drivers. When on the roads, we all have a duty to try to anticipate the movement of others. Driving particularly slowly can cause a hazard to other motorists, who may not have correctly assessed their speed. It can force harsh braking, increasing the risk of a pile-up. It also encourages actions like tailgating or unsafe overtaking, particularly if a queue builds up behind the slow driver, and there is peer pressure involved.
His point still stands. Having slow people in traffic increases the risk of accidents, so cyclists driving on the road increase the risk of traffic accidents since now people have to break or overtake.
Oh and it's also legal to ride horses on most streets. Again it's a limit not a minimum.
my point is that occupying the lane while going way below the speed limit is obviously wrong and unsafe. It doesn't matter if it's a bike, a tractor or a normal car, you must make taking you over as easy as possible if you are too slow
>B-b-but they sell expensive beep beeps!
They selk expensive jordans too exclusively for poor morons. Whats your poiny timmy?
my point is that the percentage of poor cyclists is one of the lowest of any popular sport, so calling all poor is factually retarded

The psychology with the anger issue is degenerate.
Narcissistic traits and it continues because people keep getting away with little punishment if any with injuring or killing this group of traffic.
Then there's people who hate cats or dogs who goes off-road just to kill them, quite a similar degenerate mentally ill fixation.
With so little punishment for this crime and much being written off as "accidents" society basically allows it to a high degree.
For my country it is even worse for pedestrians, it's rarely punished to kill pedestrians with vehicular slaughter.
At it's core it's definitely not about being held up 3-5 seconds.
I've had things thrown at me when biking on the shoulder of a highway. pretty fucked up. worst was a glass bottle that went whizzing past my head. stopped biking after that. I never bothered traffic with my bike and always kept out of peoples way.
I fucking hate how the automobile garden gnome has brainwashed americans into thinking it’s the ultimate freedom (so long as the road is paved (so long as you pay the oil garden gnome for gas (so long as you dump thousands to maintain it every year (so long as you obey the mandated-by-law insurance garden gnome (so long as you don’t get creamed by stacy in her 3 ton SUV or kyle in his 4 ton pavement princess (so long as your taxes go down the literal drain in order to maintain the sprawling network of hundreds of thousands of miles of roads because everything is so spread out and low density*~~*~~
are cars inherently bad? no, it’s useful if you need to get somewhere on time or traveling somewhere that is not connected by transit, but when it’s the only method of getting anywhere, has resulted in many of our cities being irreversibly fucked in terms of design (i fucking hate zoning laws), is actively contributing to obesity crisis, making communities (especially kids, since there’s nowhere to play in suburbia and will get run over by cars going the speed limit of 35 mph in a fucking residential area) more isolated, and is directly making rich garden gnomes richer, i think we have a little problem
of course in america there’s the issue that you can’t walk down the street without being shot or go on the bus and riding with heroin junkies but those are societal problems (which are, albeit indirectly and not by a significant portion, caused by dependence on cars (mainly costs of buying, owning, and maintaining a car, which is directly making people poorer, and a car, i must remind you, is needed to get literally anywhere in this country))
cyclists can be annoying cunts but i would rather have 500 cyclists than another car on the road
I'm not reading all that shit because you're clearly a schizo bikefag but I don't even drive and I hate cyclists, they never stop or slow down to let pedestrians cross, they mount the fucking pavement half the time and fly past you from behind as if you have eyes in the back of your head, and they look fucking gay to boot. I have almost been hit by far more retards on bikes than by drivers.
If everyone just cycled everywhere and inner lanes were left free for commercial vehicles, society would objectively be better. It would be a utopia.
It would: >save on healthcare costs >end obesity >end heart disease >make quality of life higher everywhere because of less noise and smoke pollution >save people hundreds of dollars a month by freeing yourself from insurance, tags, gas and Maintenace fees >create a boom in small businesses because now people will go to local stores close to them instead of driving 40 miles to walmart. Pic related >save MILLIONS of lives from car wreck deaths since a cyclist accident is a scraped knee and the worst thing that could happen is a concussion from not wearing a helmet >end the silent crisis of old people being unable to move themselves so it's this massive time/financial/emotional stress on the family trying to take care of these people >dramatically reduce the incentive for American oil invasions
But fat redneck need engine go vrooooom even if they have to lie to justify it. I saw some redneck claim fuel cell cars are nukes on wheels so I asked him to provide one example of them exploding since they existed since the 60s and he just called me a garden gnome and hid the thread. >but my groceries
Again, helping end obesity but also just learn how to tie a knot and get a basket or backpack. >but I need this heavy thing
Pay for delivery with the hundreds of dollars you're saving each month.
Nuclear powerplants + bicycles would be the perfect society.
Also the hate towards cyclists is ridiculous. A cyclist on the road is just 2 seconds you need to signal and pass them. The worst thing that can happen is they take the lane (which is illegal if they're not going the speed limit so that's not a valid argument) but CONSTANTLY you see low IQ drivers literally swerving to kill cyclists and giggling about it. Just the other day it happened to Connor McGregor so nobody is safe and it's not just a moron problem. It's educated, white people deciding to randomly run over people because they're angry at someone being healthier than they are.
>because they're angry at someone being healthier than they are.
This is definitely a huge part of it. Fat slobs are always seething about people doing healthy outdoor activities. They'll cry about slight inconveniences or negligible safety issues and use that as an excuse to go sit on their fat asses and watch more TV.
Go to the gym or bike on a trail, biking in nature is incredible. If you're in front of my car acting like a cunt then get fucked and die. It has nothing to do with this, stop pretending like you're superior for getting a mid Cardio workout. Rooners are in better shape than you

I live in CA in a suburb of sacramento so that is one of the perks here. If I was living in the country I would fatbike/mountain bike only because riding without lanes/paths is too sketchy. Parents did it in the 70's-90's but that was a different time.
>sure but why?
Because you're annoying and taking up an entire lane of traffic when you could use the bike path or trails instead. If you're a eurofag just trying to get to work ignore me, but there's a culture of American cyclists that do everything they can to try and kill themselves on the road (run stop lights, aggressively yell at drivers trying to pass them, etc) and I want them to know I will happily oblige them. There's a reason cyclists get hate here and it is well deserved.
Where do you see these people. Over here people are in the bike lane(3ft of shoulder), sidewalk, or bike trail.
Sometimes I see cyclists on mountainous roads but those have nowhere else and low traffic.
Luckily I am on a motorcycle and I pass them easily.
I don't think the people who do that are posting here. They are probably at some cafe post ride.

most of the time in the inner city. Let me be straight, there are plenty of regular cyclists who use bikes for transportation, but I always see groups of these retards in high trafficked areas taking up lanes on 45 mph roads just asking to get fucked up. Look earlier in the thread, theres a pic of one entirely avoiding the bike path and riding on the road anyways. I wonder if it's just a cultural difference, like crossfit vs just going to the gym like a normal person

Cycling is great for fitness and health, and most people are obese or unfit.
That being said these Lycra cyclists tend to be extremely obnoxious, and anyone that thinks bicycles can replace cars is delusional.
I live in rural Europe and cyclist are not an issue because they don't share the road with cars, they share the road with pedestrians right next to agricultural fields.
Most people wouldn't despise them if they weren't so insufferable.
As a rule of thumb >Some guy in regular clothes riding a bicycle
Probably a regular guy >Some guy riding a sports bicycle wearing lycra
Probably a fag
Everybody is wrong if your shit 3rd world infrastructure forces cyclists to use car lanes.
That said, there is some demonic possesion that takes place when someone puts on the spandex outfit. The last decade I see increasing amounts of these gays pedaling among cars with perfectly good bike roads next to them. And they are viscious creatures that will lash out on you if they think you've wronged them, and they don't realize traffic rules apply also to them.
Basically this
They need to get the fuck off the road. Go to a trail park. Put the bike in the car and drive there, play your little game, and go back home in the car. We don’t allow baseball in the street, football of either origin, hockey, not even skate boarding or blading, why should your toy be an exception?
I would love to commute to work and just be able to get around my local area with a fixie, but there is no support for it. The roads aren't built for it, the sidewalks suck, and the distances are awful. I don't have a deathwish, and also it's Florida so I don't want to arrive at work drenched in sweat. If I ever move it will be something that I definitely consider.
Cycling is perhaps the whitest support in existence
Everytime you hear someone seething over cyclists it's basically just a dogwhistle for hating on healthy, self-sufficient white men

this is what Arnold told college seniors at a commencement speech.
I dont really mind, in most cases its just a matter of dropping speed by 10kph and moving over a metre or two.
What I really hate is when they are cycling on backroads and force people to slow down to 5kph. Even worse when the speed limit is meant to be 100kph+.
I bike to work occasionally, it's pretty fun. Most cyclists who look like cyclists are cunts. Don't know why people get so hung up on trying to make a moral hill to die on over it.
In London, I'd say 99/100 cyclists I see ride through red lights and across zebra crossings.
If I ever mysteriously gained omnipotence, I've worked out that the 3rd thing I would do would be to make it so that the second a cyclist rides through a red light, they break their leg. Just immediately, no accident, straight up snap. I fall asleep smiling to this thought.

Is it just so simple that im just out of shape? i walk alot at my job. I went on an hour hike last week. I can bench 300 pounds. I'm 6'2 and weigh 208, which isnt bad at all. What is wrong with me?
it's probably acombination of abs and motion
maybe try not eating beforehand but i think it's jsut ebcause of the ab part
i feels nauseus even with planks sometime
What gear (high/low) when you bike? Do you use your bodyweight or do you just sit on the seat at all times like an old person? Do you take a rest period in between eating and cycling? Do you take a rest period in between cycling sessions? What do you usually wear when biking? Do you keep yourself well hydrated? >>dont do much cardio, but some
Well there's your problem (or at least one of them). Biking is pretty much an endurance sport. If your cardio sucks, then idk what to tell you.
>i walk alot at my job. I went on an hour hike last week. I can bench 300 pounds.
None of this is intensive cardio, cycling and running will make you feel so out of breath within minutes that you can't even talk
Unless you regularly engage in that kind of cardio and can tolerate it you're going to suck at it
You also need to learn how to pace yourself. As a rule of thumb if you're getting to the point where your heart rate / breathing is so intense you can't even speak you need to back off or you will just burn out within minutes.
Cycling is fucking gay. The outfits are dumb looking. They are selfish pricks that take up lanes going 10 miles an hour and then complain about other people as if they are the ones that aren't the problem. Seeing a grown man on a bicycle is just...so lame. I can't even describe why, it's just lame as hell
Cyclists are so arrogant and elitist. They think they are kings of the road and break rules at their leisure, then expect cars to kowtow to their whims and blame cars for accidents they literally cause. Fuck them
yeah, but riding a bike is fun. I do it on trails and places where im not in the way. I get to enjoy nature, but faster and i can coast at time. Nice during the summer when its hot and being attacked by bugs. on a bike the bugs cant mess with you and the moving air cools you off

Only cars cause accidents. A 180 lb man on foot bumping into you won't even hurt you, and that same man moving at 12 mph on a 40 lb bicycle won't cause any permanent injuries. Car crashes kill tens of thousands of people a year and its the involvement of the car that makes all the difference.

Objectively false. If you're coming around a corner and you can't see a cyclist until it's too late, you could run into them completely on accident. Their body and their bike could lodge into your wheel well, locking up one of your tires, leading you to careening off of an embankment or directly into a power pole as a result. I've seen cyclists camp out on curved roads where the limit is around 45, but the curve is so sharp that you won't see them until a split second before you need to brake, even when going at or below the speed limit
>I've seen cyclists camp out on curved roads where the limit is around 45, but the curve is so sharp that you won't see them until a split second before you need to brake, even when going at or below the speed limit
Those people are retards and need to be beaten.
When I ride I stop no where near cars because I don't want to be creamed by karen, ms.wong, abdul, or tyrone. I swear the issue is we don't punish people for doing dumb shit anymore.
Not that cars aren't the worse offender, but bikes certainly have the power to kill pedestrians, and the responsibility to aavoid accidents should not be overlooked.
>act annoying, selfish, and superior >insult drivers when modern roads are literally designed for cars >feminine bitch boys think they're hot shit >get hit by a driver because you were a minor inconvenience and an annoying prick >die
many such cases
Motorcyclist here, I don't mind the people who ride regular bikes while wearing regular clothes (T-shirt and shorts), but the lycrafags commuting on race bikes can get fucked. Particularly the ones who ride on the road when there's a bike path right next to them because "It's too bumpy!"
No, I mean a specially designated path for cyclists which is physically separated from the road.
Pic related is a notorious example in my city, they'll completely ignore the bike path and then ride three abreast on the road, even swerving into the other lane without looking to get around parked cars.
It's different to a bike lane, which is a painted lane on the road which I also ride my motorbike down.
I only ride on the bike path, sometimes the bike lane(not seperated from cars/motorcycles).
Bike path is the best since I am now the biggest and fastest vehicle.
Worst has to be "land whales". 250lb+ women walking side by side on bike trails.

If you are getting sick try not eating before you ride. I am guessing you need more cardio. When I come back from being sedentary and ride I feel like shit for the first week or two of riding.
This is the kind of shit I'm talking about.
There's a bike path 20cm away from him that doesn't even get any pedestrians because there's also a separate footpath.
But noooo, he would rather ride down a dual carriageway than use the pristine bike path that was made explicitly for him. Why? Because it's "too bumpy" for his bike that cost multiple thousands of dollars.
Fuck cyclists. They're the most antisocial dipshits on the road.
>Hey boss, why do we need both a bike path AND a bike lane? >Well the bike path is for the normal people riding bikes for fitness and fun, and the bike lane is a gay containment zone
I know a guy who regularly rides down this extremely busy eight-lane highway rather than use the asphalt bike path to the side.
His explanation? >It's not conducive to riding fast, because it's too bumpy and has too many turns
Cyclists would rather slow down traffic for everybody else than bother to actually learn how to turn on their $10k bikes. I could comfortably ride down this at 100km/hr on my motorbike, but extremely gentle turns are too fucking hard at 20km/hr for cyclists.
nta >This is the kind of shit I'm talking about.
I mean, yea, but it's not because they're cyclists, it's because they're pretentious assholes. They're the kind of people who would ride a bike on the car lanes, and then walk on the bike lanes. Make no mistake, they act the same way when off the bike too.
They only take up cycling specifically to be a pretentious asshole. The hobby isn't pedaling, it's about taking enjoying from making the world worse for everybody else.

The point I was trying to make is that the inverse doesn't necessarily apply. Cycling doesn't automatically make someone a pretentious asshole. They're a bunch of stuck up fags because that's how they are.
You only see pretentious assholes riding their bikes on the road because those are the guys that you notice. The rest of the cyclists are either on the bike lane or on some dirt road in the middle of nowhere.

Oh no, I don't mean to say that all cyclists are assholes. In fact in a lot of those places I've shown there will be cyclists riding on the bike paths. People getting fit, families having fun, just people enjoying a hobby. I love that, I think it's great. In fact I don't even mind the cyclists who ride on the road as long as they're the normal people riding normal bikes wearing normal clothing, because they're just using it as a method of transportation and don't act like assholes.
The specific cyclists that I hate are the lycra-wearing gays with $10k bikes who break every road rule known to mankind and don't use the infrastructure that was made specifically for them.

When I ride on my motorcycle through the chickamauge battlefield (tons of cyclists) I love to rev bomb them as I cruise on past them.
They can't catch me either so it's always really fucking funny how mad they get.
Come on now man, the chickamauga battlefield is one of the only places where all people on the road are obligated to go extremely slow all the time. Out of all the places around here (pretty much nowhere), this one is the only one that it's acceptable to have cyclists ride on the road. Also, city/town? I'm real close by. Down a little further south in lafayette. Nothing but meth here. don't visit if you don't have to
My family owns property right outside the park, like walking distance. It's a byway to get from 27 to our house, fag ass doctors and lawyers will come riding in huge packs of 30+ in the surrounding neighborhoods and cause general annoyance.
We let our dogs run around off leash (farm land) they aren't aggressive or nothin but they like to say hi to strangers
One dude threatened to call the pound on us bc my 40 pound dog was following him to close.
They come out there to get away from the noise of the city, which I understand, it's quiet out there but the excessively loud group rides of 30+ are obnoxious.
Also once a pack of them reaches 2+ car lengths you cannot safely pass without going really fast and endangering the safety of everyone involved.
Ive been down to Lafayette before. Wish I could afford property, I would start a farm down there.
I suppose you could say I've been a cyclist for years at this point. I've done multiple century rides, at a point I commuted to and from work by bicycle, I ride for fun and exercise at least once or twice per week during the warmer months.
I despise "cyclists" however. Almost every single one I've ever met who is an unabashed and self-described cyclist or cycling enthusiast is an extreme narcissist. They think that they own the road, they think that they're the most important thing in the universe. They have a persecution complex that drives them to intentionally put themselves in increasingly dangerous situations because they get a thrill out of playing victim. For a group of people who are extremely critical of the absolute slightest infraction from drivers, they do some of the most illegal and dangerous things on the road on a daily basis, from running stop signs like it's a religious rite to blowing through traffic lights, avoiding intersections on the sidewalk and crosswalks when convenient, going 20-30 mph slower than all traffic around them and pretending that it should be considered safe and normal, to weaving across multiple lanes without so much as a hand signal or indication it's about to happen so they can make a left across traffic with the aid of an arrow.
If you ever point out these things to them they become so very incredulous about their own responsibilities and things they do to frustrate drivers. Most of the time their hubris and smug feeling of righteousness is also deeply intertwined with some concept that they are doing the world a favor. Bicycles = good. "Look, I'm saving the planet by lowering pollution! I'm saving congestion on the roads by not driving a car! I'm lessening the obesity/health epidemic by being so healthy!" they chant to themselves. They like to feel as if they are morally superior to everyone around them.
This is why I don't talk to people about my cardio hobby. I don't want to be seen as one of them.
My proposals for fixing cycling: >Mandatory (cheap) registration to ride on the road, solely so that dashcams can see your license plate if you commit any crimes >If there is a bike path available, you must use it >Mandatory hook turns at traffic lights, no changing lanes from the side of the road >A legal expectation in court cases that cyclists have to be as aware of their surroundings and the road rules as everybody else
This is the real reason caggies seethe at people they ride a bike, they get fucked by the system and get mad when they see those pesky cyclists doing their thing without having to pay vassalage to the state. Riding a bike is experiencing childlike freedom so boomers, fatsos, waggies and karens get salty that they can't do the same with their shitbox so they feel the need to make people that are freer than them pay for their caggie sins.
No I'll not pay road tax, no I'll not give money to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Shell or Exxon, no I'll not insure my bike. yes I'll ride my bike on road, use the pathway, the sidewalk or the zebra crossing when beneficial to myself, yes I'll bring my bike on the train, yes I'll use the pump on gas station to inflate my tires and the water faucet to wash my bike. No I'll not ride on the gutter so you can overtake me easier. Yes I'll keep voting for tax money to be spent on bike infrastructure. No, it's not a shame if your car gets keyed 😉
What about left turns that aren't at lights? And I'm not a fan of registration, it's just not viable and wouldn't help anything. Cars today are so retardedly expensive and easy to damage I stopped caring when people whine about them.
Also things I would add >must dismount and come to a complete stop if attempting to use a crosswalk from the road/bike lane >all road legal bikes must have front and rear lights, also turn signals yes fuck you make it work
>Couches: "For comfort you need a big soft seat" >Cars: "For comfort you need a big soft seat" >Motorbikes: "For comfort you need a big soft seat" >Bicycles: "Nah bro, you want the thinnest and hardest seat possible. You just need a hole for your taint, it's way more comfortable that way"
I like to get horny and tuck my boner under my legs when I bike; I then proceed to flex my cock muscles to raise my body off of the seat. I can manage around 3 sets of 8 now, and my dick makes laser noises whenever I ejaculate. However, I can't get girls pregnant because the velocity at which my semen escapes me will destroy and potential fertile eggs. It's a price of excellence I suppose.
Just get a fatbike/mountain bike+full sus and run a fat seat. Also more weight on the bars=less weight on your dick.
I used to ride everyday and didn't have any issues with my dick. If anything the cardio made it better.
>Where do you see these people
most of the time in the inner city. Let me be straight, there are plenty of regular cyclists who use bikes for transportation, but I always see groups of these retards in high trafficked areas taking up lanes on 45 mph roads just asking to get fucked up. Look earlier in the thread, theres a pic of one entirely avoiding the bike path and riding on the road anyways. I wonder if it's just a cultural difference, like crossfit vs just going to the gym like a normal person
Yeah I avoid the inner city/downtown unless I have to. In those places most of the riders I see are poors or homeless.
I know I wouldn't ride down there. I have seen bike "collections" near the tents over there.
You have a good point about crossfitters. It's probably the same assholes in those gyms that would do the same shit on bicycles.
In that picture the dude is being an ass.
going 5mph on a bike down a winding highway where everyone is expecting traffic to be at 55mph is putting me at risk of collision. Fuck your tight pants
The only people that hate cycling are fatties who look ridiculous in Lycra
Just face it. Wearing it is the closest thing you can get to being naked without actually being naked. The legs are on display and your fit body always turns heads from thirsty slots
I'm 31 and too anxiety-ridden, autistic, and shut-in to drive a car so I ride my bike everywhere. I don't wear any lycra or any of that, usually a t shirt and shorts with a backpack. I just ride alone and try my best to follow road rules and stay as far to the right as I can if there's no bike lane.
>mom telling me a story about her cyclist friend got hit and had both legs amputated >i have to muster every ounce of strength i have to try to pretend i care a little bit >still cant even do it so just deflect by asking for details of the accident and the other person involved
Its therapeutic because it creates a minimal moment of freedom that no authority signs off on. I ignore all signage and stop lights, constantly weave between traffic and install illegal lighting on my bike. Police never stop me because they know I can easily get away through an alley or park.
Public transit and driving in megacities is the most cucked form of travel. You only get to go when and where the city allows, cops can harrass you and you have yo listen to announcements, watch ads and sit next to morons.
I think all police, bus drivers and tube operators should be lynched and laid down for speedbumps that I will inevitably use as jumps on my bike
They are gays if they take up a lane, but bikes are still based
>by law
opinion disregarded
>Sorry you feel that way, can't help you
I understand... sorry you feel scared of my vehicle, also can't help you. VROOOOOOOOOOOOM
>Get fucked.
he's getting a bit too cocky for someone in his situation
How can you be this smug when literally anyone, even a 90 lb little girl can just decide to end your life if they feel like it? Cyclists are so vulnerable, you would figure that they would be more humble considering how weak they are in literally any potential exchange involving a car. That's why I hate these fuckers. They are so pretentious and have such a fake aire of superiority when they are doing something really lame and they have no leverage of any kind
>Does something extremely dangerous
>Knows that it is in fact, extremely dangerous
>Continues to do something extremely dangerous on a regular basis
>This fact alone makes cyclists not only a liability to themselves and everyone around them, but also makes them tremendously stupid. They are literally retarded beyond words
>Rather than STOP doing the completely unnecessary thing that might kill them, they double down on their activity
>Rather than STOP putting their lives at risk for literally no gain of any kind, they go on the internet and bitch about it to feel better about themselves
>They shout into the void so they can get upboats by kind strangers on the internet
>They keep doing dumb and dangerous shit
>They then act superior about it for some reason, as if risking your life because you want to ride on le bicicleta makes you noble
>die
This is why I hate these fags. They are objectively retarded and a liability to everyone
>Does something extremely dangerous
>Knows that it is in fact, extremely dangerous
>Continues to do something extremely dangerous on a regular basis
If cyclists were real Chad's they'd just accept the danger instead of bitching about it on Instagram. This is why skateboarders get infinitely more pussy than you ever will. It's dangerous and not cool
Your hat is gay
>muh danger
no balls
If you think that endangering your life on your gay little bike is super manly then go for it retard. I'll be fucking your girl whenever you're dead
>muh penis
cool story brah
>endangering your life
at least I am living
>but muh dick her vagina
cool
Who are these people bitching? Must be some middle aged fag.
>who's bitching
Literally read the op dumbass newfag
Yeah, because passing a cyclist is an additional stress I'd rather not have to deal with in my life. Most people don't actually want to hurt others, you know. Cyclists are narcissists though, so they can't understand even though they drive themselves.
It will never not be funny how absolutely malding burgeroids get when exposed to the humble bicycle
>Humble
Your $15k bicycle is not humble.
Sorry to hear you're a poorfag.
>I'm so humble, everyone else is just too poor to be as humble as me!
Is this the power of cyclists?
You sound like you need a 5 ton steel cage to teach you some respect lmao
Yea, because they're fat, weak and out of shape. Seeing a cyclist reminds them of how weak they are in comparison, and it drives them mad.
Notice how, whenever the topic is brought up, they never compare their own selves to the cyclists, and they always compare the car to the cyclists.
>haha nice job deadlifting 500 lbs, my forklift can lift 40000 lbs
Yea, cool beans dude, let me know how cool your car is when your obese ass gets his first stroke.
>much longer than cars
Don't bikes only predate automobiles by 60 or so years?
And dual track wheeled vehicles predate bicycles by thousands of years
not even. the first gas-powered automobile was patented in 1886. the first bicycle with pedals was patented in 1853.
i hate cyclists so much it's fucking unreal
>some seniority you might consider xD
I'm going to ram a stick into your spoke and then beat you to death with it after you flip over.
>call someone a gay
>"um ackshually I'm legally allowed to be a gay :)"
okay and?
I hate the gay cyclists that do top speed on footpaths or don’t even give the courtesy of sharing what side they are on behind you. They treat pedestrians on foot paths like they treat motorists on the road.
Car morons should be shot, love to everyone that chooses to ride a bike instead of a loud smelly 5 tonne deathbox
Unfortunately for you, shooting an Akkar Churchill 612 doesn't make me fall over from the recoil like it would your stickbug ass. Your bitch ass couldn't hurt anyone capable of benching 1pl8, armed or not.
Based. Mountain bikes are where it's at. If your wheel's thinner than the fingers I use to enter your mom, you're biking wrong.
>relatively affordable and can actually take a beating before needing any real maintenance
>Only looksmogged by actual motorbikes
>Actually one-ups cars by not being illegal to mountain bike anywhere you please
>Accessorizable as hell
JUST FUCKING PULL OVER ONCE IN A WHILE AND LET CAR PASS HOLY FUCKING SHIT. ITS NOT A FEW SECONDS IT PARTS OF THE HOUR. WHY ARE YOU DOING 20 in a 50. IF A CAR WAS DOING THAT ID BE MAD.
motorcyclist and biker too. People use roads to get places. But also rope for shit drivers
would run over
You wouldn’t do shit, pussy
>t.chalk outline
>They are gays if they take up a lane
some places you aren't allowed to go near the sidewalk because young hooligans met old grannies too many times
and if you give room for drivers some of them take the piss and get way too close
besides, most people shouldn't be allowed to drive in the first place
>tl;dr blame shit drivers and gay cyclists
The cyclist, specifically the lanky lycra sporter, is an asshole who helps the garden gnomes instigate the forced "walkable" megacity hive concept. All of the shilling of "mah heckin walkable cities" is part of a psyop to get normies conditioned into living in eternal rentoid pods and owning nothing. An example of this is the 15 minute city concept being implemented in the UK. You won't be leaving. Not with an APC or even a motorbike chasing you on your dinky goybike should you choose to be a bad gentile and try seeking refuge to a freer rural area. Car sales and oil trades dying down are an acceptable risk for the Talmud finally coming true. The last nail on the coffin showing how this psyop is the execution of human autonomy is how the NotJustBikes channel isn't silenced for his "rebellious" ideas but is instead unrestricted monetization from garden gnometube, and is even paid by straight up NWO organizations to make videos sucking off Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Mountain bikes are based.
they don't know how bad it's going to get
>NotJustBikes
Why would he be silenced? His content is simply focused on infrastructure, there's zero reason for his channel to be censured.
Cyclists are freedom fighters against the tribe, you're the ones filling their bank accounts with obscene gas prices, ~~*insurance*~~, road tax whatever. Get fucked.
In a car-city you depend on oil prices (controlled by youknowwho) + the only way to get out of your city is to buy a vehicle (sold by youknowwho)
Sounds more like the cyclist's problem of thinking they can go toe to toe with a 4000 lb hunk of steel going 55 mph than my problem of just trying to get home from work
lol’d at this
It's a speed limit not a speed minimum.
>Various roads in Japan, the Republic of Ireland and the USA are all subject to minimum speeds.
>Just as their maximum counterparts, minimum speed limits are designed to increase road safety. Instead of accelerating and braking, keeping vehicles above a certain speed helps to keep traffic moving. This is particularly important when stopping traffic may cause problems for emergency vehicles to get through: in tunnels, for instance.
>Driving too slowly can also impede the safety of other drivers. When on the roads, we all have a duty to try to anticipate the movement of others. Driving particularly slowly can cause a hazard to other motorists, who may not have correctly assessed their speed. It can force harsh braking, increasing the risk of a pile-up. It also encourages actions like tailgating or unsafe overtaking, particularly if a queue builds up behind the slow driver, and there is peer pressure involved.
You're likely to only see a minimum speed sign on a highway where it's not legal to cycle anyway. Stop being a dipshit.
His point still stands. Having slow people in traffic increases the risk of accidents, so cyclists driving on the road increase the risk of traffic accidents since now people have to break or overtake.
I hope you get clipped into a bus
my point is that occupying the lane while going way below the speed limit is obviously wrong and unsafe. It doesn't matter if it's a bike, a tractor or a normal car, you must make taking you over as easy as possible if you are too slow
my point is that the percentage of poor cyclists is one of the lowest of any popular sport, so calling all poor is factually retarded
Oh and it's also legal to ride horses on most streets. Again it's a limit not a minimum.
Everytime I see these gays they think they're a car and in the middle of the road or trying to yell at someone in a car. So get fuuuuuuuuuuuucked.
Surprised there's no mention of "muh saving the planet"
>taking driving lessons (euro country)
>see a bikefag and his wife with their small kid in a trailer in front of me
>driving instructor tells me to overtake them and that it's legal to do so
>pass by bikefag at a safe distance
>bikefag absolutely loses it
>yells "NO YOU DON'T FUCKING OVERTAKE ME HERE!"
>pass by him safely
>see him raging in the rear mirror as I drive on
>driving instructor turns his head looking back at the guy raging
>calls him a stupid gay as we drive away
was probably the least aggressive cyclefag out there
The psychology with the anger issue is degenerate.
Narcissistic traits and it continues because people keep getting away with little punishment if any with injuring or killing this group of traffic.
Then there's people who hate cats or dogs who goes off-road just to kill them, quite a similar degenerate mentally ill fixation.
With so little punishment for this crime and much being written off as "accidents" society basically allows it to a high degree.
For my country it is even worse for pedestrians, it's rarely punished to kill pedestrians with vehicular slaughter.
At it's core it's definitely not about being held up 3-5 seconds.
I've had things thrown at me when biking on the shoulder of a highway. pretty fucked up. worst was a glass bottle that went whizzing past my head. stopped biking after that. I never bothered traffic with my bike and always kept out of peoples way.
I fucking hate how the automobile garden gnome has brainwashed americans into thinking it’s the ultimate freedom (so long as the road is paved (so long as you pay the oil garden gnome for gas (so long as you dump thousands to maintain it every year (so long as you obey the mandated-by-law insurance garden gnome (so long as you don’t get creamed by stacy in her 3 ton SUV or kyle in his 4 ton pavement princess (so long as your taxes go down the literal drain in order to maintain the sprawling network of hundreds of thousands of miles of roads because everything is so spread out and low density*~~*~~
are cars inherently bad? no, it’s useful if you need to get somewhere on time or traveling somewhere that is not connected by transit, but when it’s the only method of getting anywhere, has resulted in many of our cities being irreversibly fucked in terms of design (i fucking hate zoning laws), is actively contributing to obesity crisis, making communities (especially kids, since there’s nowhere to play in suburbia and will get run over by cars going the speed limit of 35 mph in a fucking residential area) more isolated, and is directly making rich garden gnomes richer, i think we have a little problem
of course in america there’s the issue that you can’t walk down the street without being shot or go on the bus and riding with heroin junkies but those are societal problems (which are, albeit indirectly and not by a significant portion, caused by dependence on cars (mainly costs of buying, owning, and maintaining a car, which is directly making people poorer, and a car, i must remind you, is needed to get literally anywhere in this country))
cyclists can be annoying cunts but i would rather have 500 cyclists than another car on the road
I like to drive away from minorities.
Full stop.
With a car you can go anywhere you want
I'm not reading all that shit because you're clearly a schizo bikefag but I don't even drive and I hate cyclists, they never stop or slow down to let pedestrians cross, they mount the fucking pavement half the time and fly past you from behind as if you have eyes in the back of your head, and they look fucking gay to boot. I have almost been hit by far more retards on bikes than by drivers.
>not consuming schizophrenic magica for cognitive gains
Completely agree brother
My driving instructor always used to say "If you hit that cyclist you have to clean his remains off the car
If everyone just cycled everywhere and inner lanes were left free for commercial vehicles, society would objectively be better. It would be a utopia.
It would:
>save on healthcare costs
>end obesity
>end heart disease
>make quality of life higher everywhere because of less noise and smoke pollution
>save people hundreds of dollars a month by freeing yourself from insurance, tags, gas and Maintenace fees
>create a boom in small businesses because now people will go to local stores close to them instead of driving 40 miles to walmart. Pic related
>save MILLIONS of lives from car wreck deaths since a cyclist accident is a scraped knee and the worst thing that could happen is a concussion from not wearing a helmet
>end the silent crisis of old people being unable to move themselves so it's this massive time/financial/emotional stress on the family trying to take care of these people
>dramatically reduce the incentive for American oil invasions
But fat redneck need engine go vrooooom even if they have to lie to justify it. I saw some redneck claim fuel cell cars are nukes on wheels so I asked him to provide one example of them exploding since they existed since the 60s and he just called me a garden gnome and hid the thread.
>but my groceries
Again, helping end obesity but also just learn how to tie a knot and get a basket or backpack.
>but I need this heavy thing
Pay for delivery with the hundreds of dollars you're saving each month.
Nuclear powerplants + bicycles would be the perfect society.
Also the hate towards cyclists is ridiculous. A cyclist on the road is just 2 seconds you need to signal and pass them. The worst thing that can happen is they take the lane (which is illegal if they're not going the speed limit so that's not a valid argument) but CONSTANTLY you see low IQ drivers literally swerving to kill cyclists and giggling about it. Just the other day it happened to Connor McGregor so nobody is safe and it's not just a moron problem. It's educated, white people deciding to randomly run over people because they're angry at someone being healthier than they are.
if you were healthier than me you would pedal your bike as fast as a car goes
>because they're angry at someone being healthier than they are.
This is definitely a huge part of it. Fat slobs are always seething about people doing healthy outdoor activities. They'll cry about slight inconveniences or negligible safety issues and use that as an excuse to go sit on their fat asses and watch more TV.
Go to the gym or bike on a trail, biking in nature is incredible. If you're in front of my car acting like a cunt then get fucked and die. It has nothing to do with this, stop pretending like you're superior for getting a mid Cardio workout. Rooners are in better shape than you
>mid cardio workout
try harder.
Bike on a trail like a man twerp, and while you're at it take that moron bike back to the shop, get a refund, and buy some self respect instead
moron I can do both.
>no you can't
sure I can. You can't stop me. I can be in my lane, trail, or sidewalk and you can't stop me.
>mountain biking is so much better
Walkers and environmentalists get triggered anyway. No matter what I do you bitches get mad.
Just another random dude trying to protect what he likes. Everyone remembers the asshole.
But it's not us getting mad if you mountain bike.
I absolutely can (and will) stop you with my car retard.
Sure but why? I am staying in my lane and going pretty slow anyways. Why not kill the other cyclist? Is it really worth having to wash your car and maybe get picked up for homicide?
Yeah but it's ALWAYS something. There is always someone shitting on what I like doing so I just stop caring. They won't change their mind anyways.
Our bike paths are black asphalt with yellow lane markings and generally a runners/gravel path on the side.
You have bike lanes? I lived in Alabama for 2 years and I never saw a bike lane. Also I visited some parts of Tennessee, Atlanta, Pensacola and Colorado. And only in Denver I saw a couple of bycicles
I live in CA in a suburb of sacramento so that is one of the perks here. If I was living in the country I would fatbike/mountain bike only because riding without lanes/paths is too sketchy. Parents did it in the 70's-90's but that was a different time.
Where do you see these people. Over here people are in the bike lane(3ft of shoulder), sidewalk, or bike trail.
Sometimes I see cyclists on mountainous roads but those have nowhere else and low traffic.
Luckily I am on a motorcycle and I pass them easily.
I don't think the people who do that are posting here. They are probably at some cafe post ride.
I just don't like paying the state for more shit laws I don't want.
>Where do you see these people
most of the time in the inner city. Let me be straight, there are plenty of regular cyclists who use bikes for transportation, but I always see groups of these retards in high trafficked areas taking up lanes on 45 mph roads just asking to get fucked up. Look earlier in the thread, theres a pic of one entirely avoiding the bike path and riding on the road anyways. I wonder if it's just a cultural difference, like crossfit vs just going to the gym like a normal person
>sure but why?
Because you're annoying and taking up an entire lane of traffic when you could use the bike path or trails instead. If you're a eurofag just trying to get to work ignore me, but there's a culture of American cyclists that do everything they can to try and kill themselves on the road (run stop lights, aggressively yell at drivers trying to pass them, etc) and I want them to know I will happily oblige them. There's a reason cyclists get hate here and it is well deserved.
Cycling is bad for garden gnomes, so cars will reign supreme forever, as a shining pinnacle of human laziness and love of wasting money
>the cyclist debate
There is no debate, cyclists are legally and morally in the right and cagers seethe. Literally not a debate
I stopped trying to debate with cyclists years ago, and started clipping their handlebars with my car.
Cyclists are fucking gays and everybody hates you for a reason
>legally in the right
cyclist constantly break the law, I only hate the retarded ones just like I hate 2/3 of drivers
clearly you haven't seen how expensive bikes can be. Ever wondered why you almost never see a moron cycling as an exercise?
>B-b-but they sell expensive beep beeps!
They selk expensive jordans too exclusively for poor morons. Whats your poiny timmy?
Cycling, even as exercise is exclusively for poors. That is all. Do not reply to me i dont care. Go get on your little beep beep bike timmy.
It's not a beep-beep bike. It's a ring-ring bicycle. At least bikes can go the same speed as cars, even if they are retardedly dangerous
Cycling is great for fitness and health, and most people are obese or unfit.
That being said these Lycra cyclists tend to be extremely obnoxious, and anyone that thinks bicycles can replace cars is delusional.
I live in rural Europe and cyclist are not an issue because they don't share the road with cars, they share the road with pedestrians right next to agricultural fields.
Most people wouldn't despise them if they weren't so insufferable.
As a rule of thumb
>Some guy in regular clothes riding a bicycle
Probably a regular guy
>Some guy riding a sports bicycle wearing lycra
Probably a fag
Everybody is wrong if your shit 3rd world infrastructure forces cyclists to use car lanes.
That said, there is some demonic possesion that takes place when someone puts on the spandex outfit. The last decade I see increasing amounts of these gays pedaling among cars with perfectly good bike roads next to them. And they are viscious creatures that will lash out on you if they think you've wronged them, and they don't realize traffic rules apply also to them.
Basically this
They need to get the fuck off the road. Go to a trail park. Put the bike in the car and drive there, play your little game, and go back home in the car. We don’t allow baseball in the street, football of either origin, hockey, not even skate boarding or blading, why should your toy be an exception?
Most of my short everyday trips are faster by bike
How long IQ do you need to be to keep sitting in traffic lmao
I don't cycle, I mountain bike. Cyclists are megagays
I would love to commute to work and just be able to get around my local area with a fixie, but there is no support for it. The roads aren't built for it, the sidewalks suck, and the distances are awful. I don't have a deathwish, and also it's Florida so I don't want to arrive at work drenched in sweat. If I ever move it will be something that I definitely consider.
Cycling is perhaps the whitest support in existence
Everytime you hear someone seething over cyclists it's basically just a dogwhistle for hating on healthy, self-sufficient white men
Cyclists are all leftist sjw homos who vote for mass immigration.
Yeah just look at this soiboy
looks like a weak chud
>sleep fewer than 6 hours per day
>never create a backup plan for yourself
>don't listen to your parents
>if i had listened to mine, i'd working as a loser cop or farmer in my hometown with 12 kids, I would have never been a roided junk-movie star and a governor with a 22% approval rating.
this is what Arnold told college seniors at a commencement speech.
>on the footpath
>not wearing lycra
Interesting.
I dont really mind, in most cases its just a matter of dropping speed by 10kph and moving over a metre or two.
What I really hate is when they are cycling on backroads and force people to slow down to 5kph. Even worse when the speed limit is meant to be 100kph+.
First 20 seconds of vid related.
I bike to work occasionally, it's pretty fun. Most cyclists who look like cyclists are cunts. Don't know why people get so hung up on trying to make a moral hill to die on over it.
In London, I'd say 99/100 cyclists I see ride through red lights and across zebra crossings.
If I ever mysteriously gained omnipotence, I've worked out that the 3rd thing I would do would be to make it so that the second a cyclist rides through a red light, they break their leg. Just immediately, no accident, straight up snap. I fall asleep smiling to this thought.
it's usually completely safe for a bike to cruise through a redlight/crossing if they do it at low speed and check that everything is clear
if they didn't it would slow cars down a lot
Glad this thread is here. I have a question for you bike riders
>be 15
>ride bike with friends
>often get nauseous, sometimes vomit. Feel really hot and uncomfortable
>chalk it up to being an underweight stoner that lives off mnt dew and pizza
>become an adult
>get fit
>eat health, lift weight
>dont do much cardio, but some
>decide to get my old bike out, put some new tires on it
>take it to a flat paved areas
>ride for ten minutes
>get sick
Is it just so simple that im just out of shape? i walk alot at my job. I went on an hour hike last week. I can bench 300 pounds. I'm 6'2 and weigh 208, which isnt bad at all. What is wrong with me?
it's probably acombination of abs and motion
maybe try not eating beforehand but i think it's jsut ebcause of the ab part
i feels nauseus even with planks sometime
What gear (high/low) when you bike? Do you use your bodyweight or do you just sit on the seat at all times like an old person? Do you take a rest period in between eating and cycling? Do you take a rest period in between cycling sessions? What do you usually wear when biking? Do you keep yourself well hydrated?
>>dont do much cardio, but some
Well there's your problem (or at least one of them). Biking is pretty much an endurance sport. If your cardio sucks, then idk what to tell you.
>i walk alot at my job. I went on an hour hike last week. I can bench 300 pounds.
None of this is intensive cardio, cycling and running will make you feel so out of breath within minutes that you can't even talk
Unless you regularly engage in that kind of cardio and can tolerate it you're going to suck at it
You also need to learn how to pace yourself. As a rule of thumb if you're getting to the point where your heart rate / breathing is so intense you can't even speak you need to back off or you will just burn out within minutes.
Cycling is fucking gay. The outfits are dumb looking. They are selfish pricks that take up lanes going 10 miles an hour and then complain about other people as if they are the ones that aren't the problem. Seeing a grown man on a bicycle is just...so lame. I can't even describe why, it's just lame as hell
yeah, but riding a bike is fun. I do it on trails and places where im not in the way. I get to enjoy nature, but faster and i can coast at time. Nice during the summer when its hot and being attacked by bugs. on a bike the bugs cant mess with you and the moving air cools you off
Cyclists are so arrogant and elitist. They think they are kings of the road and break rules at their leisure, then expect cars to kowtow to their whims and blame cars for accidents they literally cause. Fuck them
>blame cars for accidents they literally cause
Only cars cause accidents. A 180 lb man on foot bumping into you won't even hurt you, and that same man moving at 12 mph on a 40 lb bicycle won't cause any permanent injuries. Car crashes kill tens of thousands of people a year and its the involvement of the car that makes all the difference.

Objectively false. If you're coming around a corner and you can't see a cyclist until it's too late, you could run into them completely on accident. Their body and their bike could lodge into your wheel well, locking up one of your tires, leading you to careening off of an embankment or directly into a power pole as a result. I've seen cyclists camp out on curved roads where the limit is around 45, but the curve is so sharp that you won't see them until a split second before you need to brake, even when going at or below the speed limit

Those people are retards and need to be beaten.
When I ride I stop no where near cars because I don't want to be creamed by karen, ms.wong, abdul, or tyrone. I swear the issue is we don't punish people for doing dumb shit anymore.
Not that cars aren't the worse offender, but bikes certainly have the power to kill pedestrians, and the responsibility to aavoid accidents should not be overlooked.
>act annoying, selfish, and superior
>insult drivers when modern roads are literally designed for cars

many such cases
Motorcyclist here, I don't mind the people who ride regular bikes while wearing regular clothes (T-shirt and shorts), but the lycrafags commuting on race bikes can get fucked. Particularly the ones who ride on the road when there's a bike path right next to them because "It's too bumpy!"
I hope by bike path you don't mean sidewalk...
No, I mean a specially designated path for cyclists which is physically separated from the road.
Pic related is a notorious example in my city, they'll completely ignore the bike path and then ride three abreast on the road, even swerving into the other lane without looking to get around parked cars.
It's different to a bike lane, which is a painted lane on the road which I also ride my motorbike down.
I only ride on the bike path, sometimes the bike lane(not seperated from cars/motorcycles).
Bike path is the best since I am now the biggest and fastest vehicle.
Worst has to be "land whales". 250lb+ women walking side by side on bike trails.
If you are getting sick try not eating before you ride. I am guessing you need more cardio. When I come back from being sedentary and ride I feel like shit for the first week or two of riding.
This is the kind of shit I'm talking about.
There's a bike path 20cm away from him that doesn't even get any pedestrians because there's also a separate footpath.
But noooo, he would rather ride down a dual carriageway than use the pristine bike path that was made explicitly for him. Why? Because it's "too bumpy" for his bike that cost multiple thousands of dollars.
Fuck cyclists. They're the most antisocial dipshits on the road.
>Hey boss, why do we need both a bike path AND a bike lane?
>Well the bike path is for the normal people riding bikes for fitness and fun, and the bike lane is a gay containment zone
I know a guy who regularly rides down this extremely busy eight-lane highway rather than use the asphalt bike path to the side.
His explanation?
>It's not conducive to riding fast, because it's too bumpy and has too many turns
Cyclists would rather slow down traffic for everybody else than bother to actually learn how to turn on their $10k bikes. I could comfortably ride down this at 100km/hr on my motorbike, but extremely gentle turns are too fucking hard at 20km/hr for cyclists.
They only take up cycling specifically to be a pretentious asshole. The hobby isn't pedaling, it's about taking enjoying from making the world worse for everybody else.
>>It's not conducive to riding fast, because it's too bumpy and has too many turns
What a gay
The bumps and the turns are where the fun is.
>They only take up cycling specifically to be a pretentious asshole.
The point I was trying to make is that the inverse doesn't necessarily apply. Cycling doesn't automatically make someone a pretentious asshole. They're a bunch of stuck up fags because that's how they are.
You only see pretentious assholes riding their bikes on the road because those are the guys that you notice. The rest of the cyclists are either on the bike lane or on some dirt road in the middle of nowhere.
Oh no, I don't mean to say that all cyclists are assholes. In fact in a lot of those places I've shown there will be cyclists riding on the bike paths. People getting fit, families having fun, just people enjoying a hobby. I love that, I think it's great. In fact I don't even mind the cyclists who ride on the road as long as they're the normal people riding normal bikes wearing normal clothing, because they're just using it as a method of transportation and don't act like assholes.
The specific cyclists that I hate are the lycra-wearing gays with $10k bikes who break every road rule known to mankind and don't use the infrastructure that was made specifically for them.
It has the word "Highway" in the name.
>The specific cyclists that I hate are the lycra-wearing gays with $10k bikes who break every road rule known to mankind and don't use the infrastructure that was made specifically for them.
Yea, fuck those guys.
Their hobby is pissing people off.
>Highway
That's a stroad, you subhuman australian animal.
nta
>This is the kind of shit I'm talking about.
I mean, yea, but it's not because they're cyclists, it's because they're pretentious assholes. They're the kind of people who would ride a bike on the car lanes, and then walk on the bike lanes. Make no mistake, they act the same way when off the bike too.
why didn't they make the bike path out of the same material as the road? sounds like your government just wasted a bunch of money lmao
Cycling is the poor man's midlife crysis. If you can't buy a sports car you buy a road bike.
I cycle everywhere cause I'm Dutch and a poorfag. It's just a fucking means of transportation. I can't stand these (usual American) subhumans that turn something so simple into their fucking identity
I ride on an old aluminum beater bike, with an axle I replaced from jury rigged generic parts.
When I ride on my motorcycle through the chickamauge battlefield (tons of cyclists) I love to rev bomb them as I cruise on past them.
They can't catch me either so it's always really fucking funny how mad they get.
Come on now man, the chickamauga battlefield is one of the only places where all people on the road are obligated to go extremely slow all the time. Out of all the places around here (pretty much nowhere), this one is the only one that it's acceptable to have cyclists ride on the road. Also, city/town? I'm real close by. Down a little further south in lafayette. Nothing but meth here. don't visit if you don't have to
My family owns property right outside the park, like walking distance. It's a byway to get from 27 to our house, fag ass doctors and lawyers will come riding in huge packs of 30+ in the surrounding neighborhoods and cause general annoyance.
We let our dogs run around off leash (farm land) they aren't aggressive or nothin but they like to say hi to strangers
One dude threatened to call the pound on us bc my 40 pound dog was following him to close.
They come out there to get away from the noise of the city, which I understand, it's quiet out there but the excessively loud group rides of 30+ are obnoxious.
Also once a pack of them reaches 2+ car lengths you cannot safely pass without going really fast and endangering the safety of everyone involved.
Ive been down to Lafayette before. Wish I could afford property, I would start a farm down there.
>1999+24
>Caggies still seething at cyclists
Kek imagine letting a guy riding a bicycle live rent free inside your head.
It's interesting to see the high percentage of cyclists that are manlets. Really makes you think.
I suppose you could say I've been a cyclist for years at this point. I've done multiple century rides, at a point I commuted to and from work by bicycle, I ride for fun and exercise at least once or twice per week during the warmer months.
I despise "cyclists" however. Almost every single one I've ever met who is an unabashed and self-described cyclist or cycling enthusiast is an extreme narcissist. They think that they own the road, they think that they're the most important thing in the universe. They have a persecution complex that drives them to intentionally put themselves in increasingly dangerous situations because they get a thrill out of playing victim. For a group of people who are extremely critical of the absolute slightest infraction from drivers, they do some of the most illegal and dangerous things on the road on a daily basis, from running stop signs like it's a religious rite to blowing through traffic lights, avoiding intersections on the sidewalk and crosswalks when convenient, going 20-30 mph slower than all traffic around them and pretending that it should be considered safe and normal, to weaving across multiple lanes without so much as a hand signal or indication it's about to happen so they can make a left across traffic with the aid of an arrow.
If you ever point out these things to them they become so very incredulous about their own responsibilities and things they do to frustrate drivers. Most of the time their hubris and smug feeling of righteousness is also deeply intertwined with some concept that they are doing the world a favor. Bicycles = good. "Look, I'm saving the planet by lowering pollution! I'm saving congestion on the roads by not driving a car! I'm lessening the obesity/health epidemic by being so healthy!" they chant to themselves. They like to feel as if they are morally superior to everyone around them.
This is why I don't talk to people about my cardio hobby. I don't want to be seen as one of them.
My proposals for fixing cycling:
>Mandatory (cheap) registration to ride on the road, solely so that dashcams can see your license plate if you commit any crimes
>If there is a bike path available, you must use it
>Mandatory hook turns at traffic lights, no changing lanes from the side of the road
>A legal expectation in court cases that cyclists have to be as aware of their surroundings and the road rules as everybody else
There, I just fixed cycling.
This is the real reason caggies seethe at people they ride a bike, they get fucked by the system and get mad when they see those pesky cyclists doing their thing without having to pay vassalage to the state. Riding a bike is experiencing childlike freedom so boomers, fatsos, waggies and karens get salty that they can't do the same with their shitbox so they feel the need to make people that are freer than them pay for their caggie sins.
No I'll not pay road tax, no I'll not give money to Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Shell or Exxon, no I'll not insure my bike. yes I'll ride my bike on road, use the pathway, the sidewalk or the zebra crossing when beneficial to myself, yes I'll bring my bike on the train, yes I'll use the pump on gas station to inflate my tires and the water faucet to wash my bike. No I'll not ride on the gutter so you can overtake me easier. Yes I'll keep voting for tax money to be spent on bike infrastructure. No, it's not a shame if your car gets keyed 😉
>too poor to afford a car
>cope cope cope
Lmao. You could’ve just said so. Also it’s not like owning a car and bike are mutually exclusive
I have a car. Also my bike is probably worth more than your car.
What about left turns that aren't at lights? And I'm not a fan of registration, it's just not viable and wouldn't help anything. Cars today are so retardedly expensive and easy to damage I stopped caring when people whine about them.
Also things I would add
>must dismount and come to a complete stop if attempting to use a crosswalk from the road/bike lane
>all road legal bikes must have front and rear lights, also turn signals yes fuck you make it work
This scares the american
Cycling destroys your dick, reason enough to despise it
>Couches: "For comfort you need a big soft seat"
>Cars: "For comfort you need a big soft seat"
>Motorbikes: "For comfort you need a big soft seat"
>Bicycles: "Nah bro, you want the thinnest and hardest seat possible. You just need a hole for your taint, it's way more comfortable that way"
I like to get horny and tuck my boner under my legs when I bike; I then proceed to flex my cock muscles to raise my body off of the seat. I can manage around 3 sets of 8 now, and my dick makes laser noises whenever I ejaculate. However, I can't get girls pregnant because the velocity at which my semen escapes me will destroy and potential fertile eggs. It's a price of excellence I suppose.
Just get a fatbike/mountain bike+full sus and run a fat seat. Also more weight on the bars=less weight on your dick.
I used to ride everyday and didn't have any issues with my dick. If anything the cardio made it better.
Yeah I avoid the inner city/downtown unless I have to. In those places most of the riders I see are poors or homeless.
I know I wouldn't ride down there. I have seen bike "collections" near the tents over there.
You have a good point about crossfitters. It's probably the same assholes in those gyms that would do the same shit on bicycles.
In that picture the dude is being an ass.
I often get an erection when I ride from gently rubbing my prostate on the seat lol
just perch on it and don't put all your weight down
going 5mph on a bike down a winding highway where everyone is expecting traffic to be at 55mph is putting me at risk of collision. Fuck your tight pants
The only people that hate cycling are fatties who look ridiculous in Lycra
Just face it. Wearing it is the closest thing you can get to being naked without actually being naked. The legs are on display and your fit body always turns heads from thirsty slots
I'm 31 and too anxiety-ridden, autistic, and shut-in to drive a car so I ride my bike everywhere. I don't wear any lycra or any of that, usually a t shirt and shorts with a backpack. I just ride alone and try my best to follow road rules and stay as far to the right as I can if there's no bike lane.
Oh that was you? Godspeed anon. Make sure to do some maintenance on your bike and if you can carry tools to fix flats and shit.
what do you mean
>mom telling me a story about her cyclist friend got hit and had both legs amputated
>i have to muster every ounce of strength i have to try to pretend i care a little bit
>still cant even do it so just deflect by asking for details of the accident and the other person involved
Roads were built for cars. Simple as..
If the IT from south park were invented then cyclists would be using them constantly
Its therapeutic because it creates a minimal moment of freedom that no authority signs off on. I ignore all signage and stop lights, constantly weave between traffic and install illegal lighting on my bike. Police never stop me because they know I can easily get away through an alley or park.
Public transit and driving in megacities is the most cucked form of travel. You only get to go when and where the city allows, cops can harrass you and you have yo listen to announcements, watch ads and sit next to morons.
I think all police, bus drivers and tube operators should be lynched and laid down for speedbumps that I will inevitably use as jumps on my bike
