This is from a regularly scheduled Everglades Bike Club weekend ride in Key Biscayne, USA, on a 10km stretch of road, and all the drivers know to expect it will be there in the mornings.

Did you think this was a gotcha?

Have you seen how mad people get when cars drive side by side?

It's funny how even people in cars want fewer cars on the road.

That's because everyone slower than me is an idiot, and everyone faster is a maniac asshole. And the people that drive the same speed are going into one of those groups any second.

I don't get that perspective. People who safely go faster or slower than you are out of your hair in seconds and cause no disruption.

Its the inconsistent/inconsiderate drivers/riders that cause constant traffic and dangerous situations.

Yeah, if someone is going faster than you, less chance that you'll get a speeding ticket.
