I think you are overstating that. IMO, there are three types of cyclists. Casual, dedicated and entitled toolbags.
On the road you can easily tell which category the cyclist falls into.
1- Casual bikers usually don’t wear the gear, stay to the right, stay off roads that are known to be dangerous and high risk and yield the right of way to the vehicle that weighs about three tons more.
2- dedicated bikers wear the gear, understand the dangers,respect the vehicles, respect the rules of the road and ride when traffic is light and try to find safe roads and bike trails.
3- entitled toolbags pay $5000 for a bike, pay $5000 for the outfit, ride in the middle of the road, flip off cars, don’t yield the right of way, blow through stop signs, red lights, ride in heavy traffic, ride on known dangerous roads, zip around cars in traffic and expect everyone else around them to thank them for riding. They expect kids and walkers to get the eff out of their way, while they ride on sidewalks and blame everyone else for the consequences of their actions. They also ride side-by-side in packs so they can force responsible drivers to move as slowly as they do and they all think they are Lance Armstrong and have a collective superiority complex that is until they’re wheels up in a ditch because some redneck didn’t feel like waiting while they tried to duplicate Lance’s Alps climb time.
