Of any kind. Commuting, road biking, touring, mountain biking etc.

Been a cyclist of various types for 20 years now. Never seems to be non-controversial. Even among other cyclists… many hate other types of cyclists. And now there is a lot of specific e-bike hate/controversy.

I don’t get it man. What do you think?

IME assholes are assholes regardless of being on a bike or not.

    Drugs generally tend to be a life choice, vehicular transport tends to be a necessity. Yes there are people in cities that have public transit options yet they actively choose to drive, but many of us that live outside of those cities don’t really have that option. You’re not inherently wrong, but it isn’t the linear correlation you’re attempting.

      Many people don’t have the practical option of leaving their cult, most cults wouldn’t exist if they did.
