Just happened hours ago

I was with my girlfriend walking back from the beach and when we crossed the cycle pathway the cyclist riding a fast sports bike cursed at my girlfriend and then stopped to get off and park the bike IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BIKEPATH and then started shouting at us saying “look where you’re going!” and kept swearing. I told the man “don’t be so silly and rude you’re making a big deal out of nothing bro..” but he got mad and then called my girlfriend bad names. I’m a very calm person so I don’t want to hit people but I was getting angry. He ride the bike away after cursing and my girlfriend was sad. We ended up having a nice dinner though so the evening wasn’t ruined and she has forgotten already I hope so…

Why are bikers so rude!

They were going fast and you weren’t there

It doesn't matter how fast they were going, look both ways before you cross the road.

Do you want other's opinions or not? You publically posted a story that paints you as rude and self absorbed asking what people think, and when they asked a simple question about your behaviour you started deflecting. Doesn't take a genius to work out what happened.

Look both ways before crossing the road.

keep clear of the cyclepath, if you have to cross look left then right then left again my fucking toddler knows this and he isnt even three years old lmfao

I think you're just mad that you have to take some personal responsibility for the safety of everyone on the road.
