[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are a few considerate cyclists. But the lycra jersey wearing douches are generally mid life crisis old white dudes with rage issues but trying to feel youthful again.[/quote]

1.  I have not noticed any difference in cycling behavior between lycra wearers and street clothing wearers.  The lycra wearers of course go faster, so more do the wrong things that fast traile riders do - but in terms of riding in the streets, I see at least as much unsafe riding by riders in street clothes - for example riding the direction, not having lights at night, etc.  But then I also see the reckless behavior of drivers and walkers, and do not see cyclists as  worse so I guess I do not share your selective viewing ability
2. I know riders in lycra ages 20 to their 60s, and plenty of females.  Again, lets chalk it up to your selective viewing powers
3.  They are not raging - mostly they enjoy it.  I suppose if you are doing something jerky on the trail, maybe the cause of the rage is you?

4.  As for feeling youthful, there you are right.   Nothing like exercise in the outdoors to increase youthful feeling. [/quote]
