Bitchy Bicyclist on Sunset

Thu, 06/17/2010 - 07:13

I have no problem sharing the roadway with people who ride bicycles, let me make that perfectly clear. However, this morning, some rude woman on one this morning on Sunset Dr. decided to shoot me dirty looks and wave repeatedly for me to go around her. I wasn't even close to her, and was about to turn into my condo complex, and therefore trying to be courteous and not pass her and then turn immediately after. Is there something wrong with that?

I've had the same thing happen to me closer to campus too. I guess it's frustrating when people hover or tail you on a bike, but wouldn't you rather the driver be a cautious one than not? As a cyclist that has had one too many close calls in this town, I would much rather have someone follow me for a little bit and show they're aware of my presence, rather than have a wipe out because a car cuts me off. You just can't please some people...

No problem. Apology accepted.

*That second sentence should've been "However, this morning some rude woman on Sunset Dr..." instead of what I wrote the first time...Sorry!
