Re: Lycra clad cycling groups
Well after creating a website for my local cycling club I would think 2x about upsetting cylists. The guys in the club are all ex rugby and built like brick s*** houses. God help you if you upset any of them as they were not known for being very tolerant whilst on the pitch - far from it.Amazing how far these guys ride on a saturday morning though - anything up to a 100 miles!

Sorry Mark, but can't agree with that in the slightest. My ex husband was a rugby player anyway, so I do know what they can be like.
Thing is -
a) Intimidation would only go against them for a start
b) In this theoretical incident, whoever was responsible for being on the road without due care and attention would be at fault, whether this be the cyclist or the motorist. The fact that just because the cyclist played rugby has got absolutely nothing to do with it, it certainly doesn't make him automatically right nor any less of an idiot!!
