That Friday thread..encountered the biggest clown today..

Zyzz

As its Friday..

Cycling through town on my way out to Howth, the usual. As Im heading past the Bus terminal/customs house Im overtaken by an Orwellian (I think) and some commuter wearing a high viz because I was stuck behind a slow cyclist! I then overtake all of them and arrive at the lights by the 5 lamps, the Orwellian slots in behind me along with many others..

..but the clown in the high viz overtakes me, aka shoals the whole group..he was about 40 or so..

<snip>

Light goes green, we set off, I overtake and as I pass I ask him if he knew what queuing was..cycle on 50m or so, I slow down to let a car out and he pulls up beside me and utters some nonsense to me saying that he was as fast if not faster than me..

<snip>

..I laugh and ask him to keep up so..he shouts at me as I gain distance but Im not sure what he said..

We arrive at another set of lights, he pulls up beside again, I ask him why he overtakes people who are faster than him (quite politely which was odd), he then tells me hes been cycling 'these roads' for many years..

<snip>]

He then tells me that he couldnt take his eyes off my 'big arse'..which was really f*cking weird, of all the things to try and slag off he picks my arse? (no pics sorry)

<snip>

We back and forth a bit until I notice he had his legs shaved, really really really badly..try to envision completely smooth shins, hairy knees, completely smooth hamstring and hairy quads..

We set off again, once again to tries to maintain my speed, not happening, I pull up at the red light beside Westwood and what do you know, he goes straight through, while nearly getting knocked down calling me a "hero".

<snip>

If you are on the forum, I was wearing the Lotto Belisol gear, and you my friend, are complete and utter knob.

Shoaling man. Annoyed the heck out of me in Dublin, there's no reasoning with them. It's seriously senseless stuff.

Encountered my first salmon in Cork today between Dennehys and Victoria Cross; d'muppet tired to cut in front of bus to avoid me (in car), bus nearly killed him.
I'll wager he was a student...

What on earth has that got to do with anything?

I'll wager he was just a muppet on a bike.

Be it 2 wheels or 4, there's plenty of idiot pilots out there! Luckily we don't really have that problem here in Clare, we race each other instead

Your first? :eek: I meet them all the time - 5 or 6 today alone. Airport staff seem to be the biggest offenders.

He'd a CIT cravat

So the OP initiated the conflict. Guy got in front at the lights and you got a hard on for him. The guy is just a cyclist, with a small "c", whereas you obviously are a Cyclist. You need to understand that not everyone on a bike is au fait with your unwritten rules, accept this, and move on. Be nice, as it were.

Ehh, if he was in CIT then he wouldn't have been wearing a uniform tie, seeing as no third level colleges have uniforms....

On my way out to Howth today some complete and utter knob in Lotto Belisol gear kept on sprinting past me and then slowing down. Oh and the giving out each time I went by!

Oh wait...
