i have no beef with 99% of cyclists. we should all aspire to be cyclists. but those guys with youtube channels who upload 50 ‘incidents’ a week > https://www.youtube.com/user/CycleDub

There is a really long, windy, steep hill near me called Succombs Hill, which has a 25% gradient. I once got stuck behind a cyclist who decided to cycle up it. It’s a narrow road with not much chance of over taking on it. So the traffic was forced to go up doing about 5mph. I stalled in the steepest bit, which was a right pain as my hill starts were shit. I take the longer flatter route now, and avoid that hill.

I guess they saw it as challenge.

Here is someone cycling down it.

Hills like that belong to cyclists - drivers should know better than to drive up our roads

I haven’t since that day, I do the more scenic long route through Woldingham. I now have a phobia over driving up that hill.

I hate driving on very narrow country lanes too (cyclists or no cyclists) - had a couple of occasions where sat navs have sent me on crazy narrow/ steep lanes when there was probably a perfectly good A road I could have been following

cyclists are drawn to them like flys on shit though

not really keen on any cyclist who hasn’t released their hobby should be confined to mountains

#85

same as when there’s loads of bloody traffic on single track country roads: WHY ARE YOU OUT AT 9AM ON A SUNDAY THIS IS OUR TIME FOR FUCKS SAKE

5mph is pretty good going on a 25% gradient, fair play to the cyclist.

edit: also fucking lol you’re in a car and stalled because you’re rubbish at driving up a hill whaddadick

I like how they don’t mention it that that much, like vegetarians.

We had one of these jokers claim he’d been hit by one of our lorries and sent a video in. Obviously there was nothing doing in the video but that was because the trailer ‘had only clipped him’. Mate -you get hit by a lorry, you’re staying hit.

5mph was probably an over statement tbf.

And fuck you, pal

In QLD you’re allowed to cycle on the pavement and I wear a hi-vis top and cycle on it.

How about that?

Riding on the pavement.
Going through red traffic lights.
Running down pedestrians.
Sense of entitlement.
