I would put extra time at work early Saturday mornings and they would ride in packs through our large industrial park.  

I would sneer at them in my 50+ pound overweight body and mumble "losers" under my breath.

Oh, the irony of it all.

I'm starting to hate what this forum is becoming.

Seriously, what the heck? When did we become so comfortable stereotyping and hating on groups?

Thankfully no one else has ever acted badly on-road when in a group.

"Hunting cyclists in spandex" 

No, what could possibly be wrong with that?

I always ride with the traffic and try to give cars room. I hate people on bikes in cars whatever who disobey traffic laws.

Its the vigilante karen types that are the issue. Not EVERY cyclist nor every spandex clad cyclist. 
 

but if your the type to ride and block cars from easily passing just to make a point, or the type to expect everyone else to follow the laws and give you room, then you ignore all traffic devices, then you suck. That said, maybe an open hunting season might be a bit aggressive. 
 

also worth pointing out im a life long cyclist.  Im also a cyclist that GOT THE BERK OUT OF THE WAY because even from a young age, i realized that i wasnt going to win a fight with a speeding auto.

Fair enough. I thought the wording was obviously so over the top it was clear it was hyperbole.  Forget it.  I'll defeat the whole thing.
