Every time I see a thread like this about mean old roadies, I recall the time I fell at one of the more dangerous intersections on my way home. Lady pulled out of nowhere and when I stopped I couldn't unclip so down I went. Nice road bike, bike shorts, jersey the whole 9 yards. Then "Fred" in his baggy shorts and T-shirt pedaled by on his cruiser, looks down at me and kind of sneered. Apparently convinced I got what my elitest butt deserved.
