What makes you think, all those of you fancy dressed Lance Armstrong-wannabes, that by going over stop signs at full speed, (as you did last night and nearly got wiped out as I turned right, missed you be inches by the way), running red lights and in general, not obeying any road laws: What makes you think that other road users do not see you as any other than complete and utter shite? —The Turd de France

I don’t think they care one way or another.
Yeah Turdy,
What makes you think we CARE about what other road users think of us? We don’t require your acknowledgement or acceptance.
Ya’ reap what ya’ sow…
It seems there’s some other definition of “roadie” that I was previously unaware of…
Yes, in cycling circles they’re the ones biking on the road. The other end of the spectrum would be the ‘mountain biker’, in quotes due to obvious lack of mountains in some locales.
For the light runners and stop sign ignorers, I just write them off as either triathletes or adventure racers, to make myself feel a little better.
Does anybody really want to be Lance Armstrong right now?
but duh, they own the fucking road o.p., didn’t you know that.
