This one of my few rants about poeple who ride bikes on the road.
I ride a bike. It is not a racer type bike, it is called a hybrid. It is neither racer type or a mountain bike. It is a combination of both. The reason I ride this type is the riding position. With the racer type my hands started to go numb, from leaning on the handlebars.
Well any who, as I ride around the mid coast of Maine I pass many people on bikes and because I am such a friendly guy, I wave at my fellow bikers. And I will get back a few waves, but not from the people on those race bikes that are dressed like the are in the Tour de France. These tight shirt warring reveling pantaloons people are just too snobby to wave at a casually dressed rider. Well maybe it is the fact that their hands are all numb and they can't physically wave. Or is it that they want nothing to do with my floppy shirt or my properly fitting pants. Maybe the tight pants are pressing on their genitals and some how this causes their waving hand to be non-operative. I just don't know. Loosen up those pants and be a little more friendlier,wave and say howdy do.

Take it easy Uncle Willie...
I don't know what "tight shirt warring reveling" is but it sounds angry like the rest of your post...

Oh how I miss your spell checking. And the word is suppose to be revealing. I know that you could not figured what the heck I was writing about and I hope that I have cleared that up for you so you can enjoy my entertaining post.
Uncle Willie,
The word I was really worried about was "warring". Bike riders reveling in war sounds awfully scary.
But now you have cleared it up, you must mean bike riders revealing their warlike tendencies, and I have to admit that sounds a bit less scary. But only a little bit.
BTW if you are doing a best of, my vote for your best post was "My spin instructor is trying to kill me" (I think it was). That was the very first post of yours I ever read, about instructors using cattle prods and suchlike. Very amusing.
