Not just a cyclist issue. One of the things that bugs the crap out of me is the old women in the local news FB groups who will be doing the "we need it, keep on raining" BS when there's water standing in the 200 year flood plain, mudslides along a couple of ridges, and asphalt washing off of streets from the runoff flow rate. Of course, all that doesn't matter to them, since they don't have jobs to get to, and the bingo hall is on high ground.
