Cyclists, as a whole, are pretty damn rude and narcissistic. They feel entitled to more than their fair share of the road and get extremely hostile very quickly when they don't get their way on the road.
Unlike skiers, who are very helpful and polite, cyclists are self-centered individualists with a short fuse.
That's why I buzz them in my SUV. Sometimes my friend reaches out the passenger window and slaps them in the butt!
You should see how pissed off these road-pests get! LOL

So we should just give them an extra apostrophe, too? Nice catch, Freaksters; good line, but I can't wait to see this one come across my desk in a CW's book.

Good deal for the ad agency if they bill by the character...

Wouldn't be surprised if they wear helmets, black socks and those fucking bags of water on their backs. Once round Central Park and it's time for dinner at Pastis.
Wussies!!!

I am so pissed at that SUV driver/skier who is dissing us cyclists, and as soon as I get my bike's out of storage I am going to pedal after you! :)

I hope that the NBC lawyers are sharpening their pencils, because the line is cribbed from and old SNL skit (Phil Hartman as Sinatra).

debbers, I will buzz you in my SUV and cut you off right into a parked Taxi.

Absolutely true story: when I was walking to work my very first day on my new job in New York (this was in '92 I think), I saw a bicycle messenger's belly get ripped open by a swerving delivery truck's bumper. His intestines spilled out on the street right in front of me. I think he was dead before he hit the ground.
Yeah, bikes rule.

Person on 18 pounds of tubing vs. Person in Buick LeSabre.
Who is going to bleed to death?

Buick LeSabre? My bike costs more than that car. get rid of that piece of crap and start saving the planet. If you continue driving your piece of crap, your kids will be paying $20 per gallon of gas in 20 years. It's because of people like you who don't get it that we are in a fuel crisis. So, get off your fat old ass and start pedaling, old man.

BuzzingCyclistsInMySUV, I ride every morning from Clinton/Houston to Union Square. I'll be going up Ave. B around 8:30am, riding a red Raleigh. I would like to invite you to "buzz" me. I have a cosh waiting to take out your mirror and/or your bloated, cheese doodle-munching ass.
If you're not up early enough to meet me on Avenue B, I'd be glad to find you anywhere you like and kick your ass in a more leisurely manner.
I doubt any of that interests you, though, as you're probably just another all-talk, no action weakling who likes to spout off but could never handle a real confrontation.
If I ever see anyone "buzz" a cyclist anywhere, trust me, your SUV will be minus several windows.

I'll throw my fucking bicycle through the fucking window of your bloated suv with hopes of my chainring slicing open your throat. Stay the fuck away. I'll kill you and eat you.

BuzzingCyclistsInMySUV has got to be joking, come on people. If he weren't kidding his tag would be F*ckingNewJerseySUVLoser or maybe CommuterInSUVFromNJ or some such crap. Lets close down the bridges and tunnels. "Lets", Oh crap I lost my apostrophe.
Here it is. '
