Quoted: She's a dumbass attention whore. But I doubt there's much of a case for criminal activity. She didn't climb over any barricades that I could see in the video, if she did there were a shitload of other people there too. I didn't see any signs warning people to stay off the road. And if there were any cops or other people warning people back, I didn't see any signs of that either. Expecting people to have common sense, knowing you're not going to get it out of more than 50% of the population, the charging one of the many idiots with a crime just doesn't seem workable, at least to me. Now civil suits are another matter. Even if the cops let her go I suspect she'll be sued into oblivion. View Quote |

Quoted: lmao She needs to come stand on the long narrow 2 lane 45mph winding road near my house that these bicycle fairies always want to ride down during peak traffic times, causing a mile long backup and near-head on collisions when people try to go around them. Fuck cyclists. Go ride your children's toy at the public park. Roads are for cars. View Quote Sorry you're too out of shape. Not really though. |

Quoted: As a cyclist that can't stand the majority of cyclists I love threads like this View Quote I am too. But years ago in my early 30's I changed to gravel and single track. Never looked back. I promptly sold my carbon frame, carbon brifter, carbon wheels, carbon crank carbon almost everything bike that road like crap on 19c tires for some 42c lower pressure and alloy frame stuff that is a joy to ride. And us fatties enjoy the bar hopping. ![]() |

Quoted: You'd be wrong. I'm also not a 5'8" 100lb leotard wearing fairy who likes to ride a children's toy down city streets at 1/4th the posted speed limit, creating a traffic hazard and calling it a sport. View Quote The peloton was doing ~25mph (estimate - I couldn't find anything that listed the actual speed) on a road designated for the race route. What exactly do you call a sport - american football, basketball, baseball, golf, fishing? Please tell us about your world class athletic capabilities and how you could ride the TdF finishing in the top 3 everyday but you're too much of a "man" to ride a +$10K child's toy. Those 5'8" 100lb wearing fairies will laugh at you when it comes to cardio. |

Quoted: They should just space them out and start a new rider every 30 seconds so its not such a big cluster. The roads are too narrow for a group of 150 riders. View Quote There are phases of bike races including the Tour de France called "time trials" in which individual riders race against the clock without interacting with other riders. A time trial event actually happened today in the Tour de France. I haven't been watching the race, but I think it's pretty funny how people who know nothing about the sport are pretending to be expert critics. |

Quoted: For some it means "Get out of my way, cager." View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Fuck bicyclists. They truly believe "Share The Road" is only aimed at automobile drivers. As a population, they are so self-important and self-centered that they are incapable of understanding what the word "share" means. Three of us were riding a back road on our motorcycles a few years ago when we came upon three cyclists in a narrow, windy, dipsy doodle stretch. The two women were riding abreast in front followed by the one male. As we approached he looked over his shoulder and swung out beside the girls. Three abreast now. A zero percent chance of safely passing them dropped to less than zero. We were down to 5 mph behind them until we could safely pass. Had they gone single file we could have safely passed them at a slow speed just over their own. But asshole had to make it impossible. All three of us gave him some version of "share the road asshole!" as we went by. |

View Quote I don't know if they're still around, but 10 or 15 years ago, there was a company that set up group events for singles. Sold their concept as 'forget about the bar scene and matchmaking services' and just go on fun outings with groups of singles to have fun and maybe, just maybe, find someone you hit it off with. A coworker (at the time) was heavily into it, and he picked events that younger women weren't likely to be interested in (cut down on the number of guys in the group, leaving him with a group of women with ticking clocks - claimed that at any given time he had his choice of three women to have sex with). Anyway, something that the younger women apparently were interested in, was group bike rides. So you would have a group of young women in spandex, and a group of horny guys wanting to show off. The guys moving to the left, so they were riding two abreast and sometimes three abreast, was apparently considered something they were expected to do (to show the women how they could protect them), any time they came to a stretch of road straight enough that a car might think it was safe to pass. The guy at the back of one of these groups (apparently the odd man out, since there were more guys in the group, than girls) had me thinking he was about to stroke out. I came up behind them on a two lane, twisty country road (30 or 35 mph limit) and started slowing down. The road started uphill as it curved to the right (completely blind curve), just as I caught up to them, so since I had killed all my speed, I had to downshift. Guy at the back came unglued, waving his arms, yelling, making faces... if it had been much worse, I might have expected him to suddenly jump on the hood of my pickup. He calmed down after realizing that my pickup had not accelerated at all. Leaving me to give him the "are you such a moron that you don't know what a manual transmission is?" look, which he apparently ignored, focusing his attention on making sure that I made no attempt to pass them, as long as he was guarding the rear. Any time we came to a long stretch where I might have been able to safely pass them, they would do something to make it unsafe for me to pass, including shifting to riding three abreast, with the guys on the left. |

Watch in slow motion. The rider made no effort to move, in fact he deliberately shunts her with his arm - he was intent on running the person through. Equally, the cardboard sign was sticking out. Idiot cyclist meets idiot pedestrian.
The cyclist was taking risks e.g. hes just about on the grass verge where you can anticipate, holes, mud, gravel and spectators. He took the risk, tried to run through - it went belly up. Dumb and dumber collide. Normal cyclista mentality. When you look at its the typical clown world of cyclistas - (1) the guy that clipped the woman was 6" from the edge of the road (2) his team mate was next to him (3) the horizontal gap between his team mate and the next rider across was 3 feet. (4) There were pedestrians all along this section of road. The woman shouldn't have been as far out as she was, equally the cyclist literally had to give a few inches and there was plenty of space. Dumb people make dumb decisions. |

View Quote You seem not to understand the phrase "speed limit". It refers to a maximum speed at which you can travel when traffic is flowing smoothly, visibility is optimal, your vehicle is functioning properly, and weather conditions are reasonable. Often, driving conditions will not fit this ideal. Highways can have posted minimum and maximum speed limits too This link may help ![]() |

One would think is she weren't privileged would the law even consider an investigation?
Her only hope is to claim shes a he or a gender bender. |

Evil grin on her face.
Can anyone translate what the sign she is holding says? |

View Quote Every red blooded non-spandex wearing manly man in GD will tell you cyclists are supposed to ride as far to the right of the road way as possible with no consideration for the crap/shitty conditions at the edge of the pavement - which is exaclty what the TdF racer was doing. Have you ever actually ridden a road bike on a group ride? WTF exactly was the rider going to move to? Where are the few inches to give since there was plenty of space? He's in a race on a road designated as the race course and riding in a peloton almost shoulder to shoulder is a fundamental part of bicycle racing. Dumb people post dumb shit in GD. |

Quoted: Quoted: That wreck looks like most soccer fouls or whatever they call them. Lots of drama. 21 cyclists including Britain’s Chris Froome were seriously hurt. LOL guess everyone's definition of "seriously hurt" differs. In the Marine Corps, a LCpl steps on an IED and sustains BTK amputations is "seriously hurt". In France, a cyclist clutches his wrist and cries in pain is "seriously hurt". Bet he was limping, as well. You GOT to limp in case no one realizes the life threatening injury done to your wrist! ![]() |
