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.

    Car and oil lobby very big yes

    Big car = big strong masculine man

    Bicycle = weak and effiminate

    Bike get in way of my 14000 lb child crusher, make me go slow 😔

    Bike bad

    In other words, the car and oil lobby has not only designed our roads around cars making using a bike dangerous and uncomfortable but it has also infested our minds. Americans also get irrationally angry at the mildest inconveniences especially when driving.
