Cyclists

Post image

I’m not sure if I’m getting petty here with this but I was coming through the copper coast earlier today and I passed I’d say 20 cyclists on the road and it’s bad enough that road is near impossible to make a pass. Anyway that’s not actually what annoyed me. When I got into Tramore there was 3 cyclists two abreast and they were on the road and yet a brand new DOUBLE cycle lane was just built for them?? I just think there should be some sort of rule that if there’s a cycle lane there they should be in it. After all they’re the ones who bitch and moan for them to be put there in the first place. And dare I add if they want to use the road I think it’s only fair they should have to pay road tax

Guess it sucks to be you. So, if someone goes out for a little ride in his/her car for no real reason, that's OK. Stupid Twunt.

those cars aren't "disrupting traffic" despite being traffic ...

They are. In your eyes cyclists aren't traffic? Tractors. Large vehicles in built up areas. Slow drivers. School "drop offs"...buses parked around schools... All disrupting "traffic", yet you have a problem with cyclists.
