Went on a 120 km ride yesterday. The route was mostly on country roads
in ACT. It was pretty quiet given it was Sunday morning. Although it
started as a bunch ride, very soon I found myself riding with only one
fellow rider. So we rode mostly two abreast squeezing to left as much
as possible.

I faced three really close calls by a Harly rider and her girlfriend, a
sport motorbiker and a huge Patrol towing a huge horse trailer. All
meant that they were not happy with sharing the road. Behaviours of all
three were equally rude. It's really interesting when morons consider
themselves as smart! More interesting was the two motorbike riders'
action as they had plenty of room, and cyclists were posed no
inconvenience to them.

Now the question is: When riding, we seem to be at the bottom of the
peck order. How many of us exert their status when not riding?

I personally don't let morons at the wheels get away while I'm driving.
But this seems to ruin my driving pleasure, and so I tend not to drive
recently. This way, I sit again at the bottom of the peck order. Now
that's my conundrum. What's yours?



Well I ride a roadie and an MTB and a motorcycle, and occasionally
I drive a car. Quite often I walk.

The only pecking order is non_morons-morons.

Except that the morons are too thick to see it
