Of any kind. Commuting, road biking, touring, mountain biking etc.

Been a cyclist of various types for 20 years now. Never seems to be non-controversial. Even among other cyclists… many hate other types of cyclists. And now there is a lot of specific e-bike hate/controversy.

I don’t get it man. What do you think?

IME assholes are assholes regardless of being on a bike or not.

    It just isn’t practical to bike most places in the US. It’s too spread out, and there aren’t paths that bikes can take that they don’t have to share with 3,000lb cars that will delete them if the driver makes a single mistake.

    So biking is just a recreational thing some people do for cardio near their house.
