  How are these any worse than the MAMILs?

  They are:

  • Generally faster and more unpredictable.

  • And heavier, compared to MAMILs endless quest to have the lightest rig possible to get that PB time to work.

  • Driven by kids without a fully formed concept of risk and consequence.

  • Not wearing hi-vis lycra and safety gear.

  So overall, I’d prefer middle aged men in lycra.

    The Lycra idiots “roll roll roll” through traffic lights and have killed pedestrians and the recieved just a fine.

    I have a full respect for people who commute on a bike and I try make the road as safe as i can for them and other users. The over entitled ass hats in lycra who think they own the road are a blight on cycling in general. Not just bikes has an interesting video regarding the state of cycling in the USA because of the wishes of MAMILs.
