You know what really grinds my gears?

[Eamonnca1]

Cashiers that put the bills in your hand and the coins on top. The coins then try to slide off.  I sometimes politely tell them it's better to gimme the coins first and then the bills.

So it's ok to post things about someone you don't know, slander them and call them offensive names as long as you hide behind an internet alias!

Slander would imply that it wasn't true. Do you have proof that she was innocent of the charge of talking on the phone while serving the fella?

Oh ffs no wonder your boss makes you leave the door open to check up on you!    If you are doing anything more important and franking envelopes i'd be surprised!

Annoys me too. Becasue I always put the notes back inside the wallet then the coins in the wee pocket.

Lads, just because ye've spent hundreds of euros on bikes, helmets, wraparound shades and those godawful spandex suits doesn't mean you are actually in the Tour de France. (Or even the Rás)

And also with you. (I'm trying to come up with an alternative to " +1 ". Back to the  drawing board, though).

It's perfectly legal to ride 2 abreast. Get over yourself.

There is a pretty sizable internet around here somewhere too.

It may be (it wasn't one time), but do you really think it's reasonable?

Usually it is. If it's not safe for a car to get past when they're riding two abreast then it's not safe to get past if they were riding single file.  I see it all the time. Riders are two abreast, they hear the car coming from behind, they get single file, and the car still can't get past until a straight clear overtaking path opens up. So it makes no difference how much room they're taking up. The only difference is in the minds of the motorists.

We were riding into Point Reyes one morning in a bit of a pack, and a few cars appeared behind us.  We all got single file (except for one girl who got a bit stuck and someone had to let her in). A cop car was one of the cars behind us and the cop announced over the speakers for us to ride single file. We eventually got tightened up into single file and rode as close to the gutter as we dared.  Guess what? The cars still couldn't get past us until a mile or two later. So what difference did it make how many abreast we were riding?

Maximum of two abreast.

However if the cyclists are over-taking they must do so in single file.

How slow exactly is your car AZ?
