Who rides out from Richmond?

I am located at Shell and Alderbridge. Don't mind riding with you guys in the future. Iona Beach is pretty close for me.

Just got home from a relatively short commute.


Edit: Gonna toot my own horn here but some jerk on a Norco CRR 3 told me to get off the road or keep up while I was commuting on E. 33rd Ave. (It was unprovoked.) Dropped the little bitch on the flats and a slight incline then watched him struggle.

So be careful guys - your mileage may vary. Maybe our lucky days are coming to an end.
2 weeks ago, I placed an order from ChainReactionCycles on Tuesday, for x2 tires, totaling $40, they arrived on Thursday (2days later) via DHL, and I owed them $20 for brokerage.

I hope you said "Go FUCK Yourself" in passing.

Are there seriously "D BAGS" like this out there? that say stuff like this? Unprovoked.

I'm pretty darn new at this whole cycling thing, and if someone said something like that to me while riding, I don't even know what I'd do.

In my personal opinion and experience, there really is no point in retaliating because it would only provoke their behaviour. I didn't say anything and just let it slide and let the ride speak for itself but in all honesty, this is the first time it has ever happened where another rider told me off.

I'm not sure what the guy's problem was. I was basically stopped at Knight/Clark and E. 33rd Ave going eastbound. I crossed the intersection and he zooms past me and told me to get off the road or keep up.

The cycling leg starts at 8 am from the Second Beach parking lot (just north of the swimming pool). I can introduce some newer riders here interested in riding in packs.

May be early for some of you young ones... But that's when they go. Otherwise, I may ride in the afternoon if I can get away.

I can't do morning but afternoon is feasible. I am slow though.

Please don't tell me they were riding kid sized Argon 18s and Pinarellos. I feel inadequate.

But as Alphamale says, "Shut the fuck up and just go ride, okay?"
