today i almost confronted a cyclist during my commute. he sprinted between me and another cyclist with no warning and basically no room to do so. he had one of those obnoxiously loud freewheel hubs which i think are required use by dickbags.

i had it all planned out what i was gonna say when i caught up with him (which i did cause he wasn't all that fast, just reckless). "hey dickface, it's hard enough dodging cars trying to kill me all day. it'd be nice to not go down because of a fellow cyclist. stop riding like an ass."

but i wussed out. but THEN several blocks later i see him blocking a taxi in the middle of the street having words. i hate it when people say "bad cyclists make us look bad" because a lot of "bad" cyclist behavior either isn't that bad or is in the interest of self preservation, but... this guy was definitely making us all look bad. sigh.
