hahahaha.. nice.

Speaking of cyclists *****ing to other cyclists... my biggest annoyance is cyclists who constantly pull around and stop ahead of me at intersections. I had two guys do it multiple times to me yesterday on my way home. Each time I had to "dangerously" pass them in the intersection when the light turned green because they were so much slower than I am. I line-up at lights at the back of the line, and I know I'm going to be riding faster than 95% of people on the road... why can't these ******s? And the other side of the coin: I've passed you like 6 times, I'm quite obviously riding faster.

It's a balancing act between wanting to say something and also not wanting to be "that guy".

Or am I just being too sensitive?
