Cyclists

I've been getting nagged to write again today, I was going to have a day off. I've been too busy to do so, so far but I really need to express my utter, ummm not sure I can find the right describing word, hatred???? for the people who choose to clog our roads and disrubt our traffic on two wheels! Yes the cyclists! Whilst I really, really do not understand the desire for 40+ year olds to dress in lycra and get all sweaty, whilst tackling hills that I can barely walk up, I do understand why Joe Bloggs from next door would like to keep fit or ride his bike to work if he doesn't have a car and I really have no problem with Joe Bloggs, really, BUT those w**kers who cycle in swarms, like a cloud of wasps, blocking our roads, riding 3 abreast with no consideration for cars, you know who are the ones who pay road tax, abide by traffic rules (most times), stop at traffic lights & zebra crossings (OK maybe not always zebra crossings) and don't exceed the speed limit by 30kms an hour (*coughs loudly), well they are the ones that really push my buttons and not in a good way, I can tell you! Driving a right hand drive car, myself, the desire to put my arm out of the car and push the first bike so the rest of them fall like dominos, is really quite overwhelming! The other problem I have is that when I drive my cabriolet, I seem to develop temporary tourettes and involuntarily shout 'Tu eres Cabron' at them, to which they sometimes stick their fingers up at me (how impolite) or look at me as if I'm nuts (as if)!!!! Twenty minutes it took to get past them on the road from Pego to Orba, last Saturday morning at 8.00am!!! Then just as we're about to get lucky and overtake them on a blind bend (they gave us little choice) they speed up to 70kms an hour (in a 40), go single file and leave us for dust! Luckily they decided to stop, in a bunch of course, at the first bar and Rich was able to drive very, very close to them, scaring the shit out of them, then take off, very fast as they waved their fists and made rude hand gestures at him. Sorry if I have offended any of my FB friends with this but I really am truly offended by cyclists on the roads in Spain.
