I remember the last time gas prices went through the roof.
I was riding my bike with my wife, going to the goshery store. A guy yelled out of his truck. I was like here we go....(im used to harassment on bikes). He said "Yeah! Stick it to em!"
We were just poor at the time, but it made our day haha.
What piece of shit harassed you for riding a bike?
Edit: I am deeply saddened by the current state of things.

Some people are very fragile and have poor emotional regulation. When they see other people doing good, it makes them feel bad, so they lash out.
Environmentalism, biking, veganism, all commonly evoke this behavior.
