    Today I encountered so many grumpy, miserable or rude cyclists.

    Did I miss the memo about it being unfriendly Friday or something!

    Probably me …. I do 10000
    Probably me …. I do 10000 miles a year but always struggle to clip/unclip! Think I have them too tight!

    I do always say hello (downhill) or wave (flat) or nod (uphill)though! đŸ˜‰

    At least I wasn’t alone then.
    At least I wasn’t alone then. Although I was blanked by more than 8. I started to think I had the power of invisibility!

    I do think you are on to something though. I did enjoy watching 2 riders I had caught near traffic lights (who’d looked at me with disdain) wobble and fail to clip in repeatedly as I rode by. They had all the gear compared to my humble allez and dhb shoes too lol.

    I must have missed it too,
    I must have missed it too, easily passed 8+ cyclists this morning, said hello to everyone, got less than half of them replying. May the fleas of a thousand camels infest their bib shorts.

    My theory of the moment, is to blame it on Cavendish and his cronies in the British cycling team – bare with me – they have made cycling popular and cool. This means that people who would never have touched a bike before are now going out and buying one. That means that cycling is now starting to reflect society – full of grumpy twonks with no manners or social skills. Essentially we are all doomed.
