Cyclists really are road lice.

As I've always said, it isn't all of them, only most, these days.

Statements such as the above aimed at any other group, would be
unthinkable.

But cyclists? The new Jews.

The traditional Courteous and Co-operative Man

In England, 'cooperative' means 'get out of the way of car drivers'.

On A Sensible Bike With Straight Handlebars isn't the problem.

There you have it. Anyone who rides a bike with dropped bars is 'not
sensible'.

It's all these idiots who (in their own heads) are riding the Tour de
France, or some "sportif" somewhere, a really good example of which is
seen in the video at that link.

So many prejudices, and he doesn't even try to conceal it.
