Anybody here try to run over a cyclist?

Not wanting to stir a debate on "rights", but for their own safety, why don't they ride in parks or on trails, or at least the roads in town with bike lanes?? Don't they realize how much drivers hate being stuck behind them - only to get around them - then at the next red light they pass the cars, who then have to go around them all over again. Fuggin sucks!

And we've all come up on a pack of cyclists, 20 or more bunched up taking up the whole lane, not riding single file over to the right. That's some bullsh*t.

I dont mind the cyclist if they are riding in a 35 mph zone. I'm already creeping anyway so we can share. The hot rods that think their hot poo and get out on my 55 mph uphill road and expect me slow down until i can pass...these fugs can eat the curb.

Also, it blows my mind when there is a bikes only lane and bicyclists refuse to use it. Maybe you think you're too good or too fast for the amateur lane? You're Not.

Yeah if they are on slow roads, or country roads, that's fine. Even roads with 2 lanes each way so you can at least pass easily, is fine.

I just hate the Lance Armstrong wannabes that get out on the 45/55mph zones and screw stuff up and cause potential accidents.

way too many of them idiots around my place. I live out in the country and all the roads around my place are paved, single lane roads with really narrow shoulders. There's thousands of them out here especially on the weekends. How more of them don't get run over I will never know!

I was responding to a fire one time in an engine and I come up over a small hill and there was a bunch of them in the middle of the road. I lay on the horn and closed my eyes...not sure who poo first...them or me! Still don't know how I didn't hit at least one of them.

    • When we drafted Luke, we already had Cam, Smith, Olsen, Stewart, Deangleo, Gross, Kalil, CJ, Hardy, Beason, TD, Gamble (and maybe more I'm forgetting), we had a lot of great pieces in place. Going pure BPA for a player with Luke's potential when the LB you already have is different when you already have all those pieces in place.  Our OL right now is probably in a better shape than that team and our RBs and TE have potential compared to proven vets back then, but after that, the 2012 roster was in a far better shape than we are right now. We need a #1 WR, DEs, LBs, DBs, C, and depending who you ask a QB.  Going BPA at pick #5 when that player is a DT and your current best player on either side of the ball is a DT, seems irresponsible. If he's the only player they like that high left, then you trade back and go with position of more need at a slot that makes sense for the player while adding other picks.  If you trade back and he falls because other teams don't need/want a DT, then you consider him at that point because of the value.    
    • This sounds like the same back and forth when we drafted a LB when we already had a LB or as mentioned prior back to back DLs. I want the BPA, if it is another DT so be it. (No not a kicker/punter for those people that think they are funny))
