Cyclists endangering motorists? Me on my little metal frame is somehow a danger to basically a tank, yeah no, not buying that one. And speeding? Do you know how difficult it is to get above 25 on any bike?
What an absolute shit rag.
It's a pro cycling article that's complaining about another article, which they have a screenshot of.
The article they're complaining about explicitly says the cyclists are a danger to pedestrians in the headline
So yes.
What an absolute shit rag.
I agree OPs link is fucking horrible and not based on reality
They just know a lot of road cyclists are rage addicted and won't bother reading. They'll get mad and share the story to other cyclists who won't read it but still get mad.
14.6 mph is pretty fast when you don't obey stop signs, stop lights, or any other traffic law, and refuse to wear any high vis safety equipment....
Also, the original headline says theyale it unsafe for pedestrians.
But then, the biking website you link just flat out fucking lied about that, even tho they have a screenshot that shows that they lied about it...
