@clickhere @Rubelicious @baoigheallain I was out walking my dog a few days ago. A cyclist ninja-stealth-wheeled up behind us and, just before we walked through a narrow part of the path we were on, decided to skid noisily to a stop over gravel. And then he wondered why my dog started barking at him. :ffs:

@dec23k @Rubelicious @baoigheallain Oh what an absolute fucking dick bag. Or those Strava wankers out on the Clontarf cycle path, trying to set PBs in amongst all the kids and social groups. One of those one day aggressively barrelled past me on my way to wherever, so I sped up, sat on his wheel and draughted him the whole way along. He was disgusted. MF, if you're going to try that shit, you had better be fucking faster than me. #Rothar #BikeTooter

@dec23k @clickhere @Rubelicious @baoigheallain There is a feeling you sometimes get as a pedestrian that some cyclists, usually the ones wearing lycra, have learned a "might is right" mentality from car drivers and see themselves as higher in the food chain than pedestrians. I've lost count of the amount of times I've nearly been mown down by these clowns. So the bell is appreciated, even if unexpected sounds can be startling.
