Roadies are the Dodge Ram drivers of cycling. Entitled douchebags, the lot of them, even to other people on bikes and even on trails. I’ve been stopped for a light in my bike and they’ll roll through it next to me. I blame them for 90% of the interactions people have on the road with aggressive cars as the spandexers

Welcome to the self-checkout of automotive journalism.
