I tried saying hi to the cyclists in TNT but none of them swapped a hello while they pedaled their pace line. I guess they were too busy training for next year's Tour de France.

Brutha, Can You Spare A Hello
I biked my bread-and-butter route to Flatwoods this morning and while on the Flatwoods loop I met TNT. I thought TNT was a TV network but it's actually also a bicycle group called "Team New Tampa."

just love how "intense" some groups are when they ride...a simple nod or hand lift says alot(and yes,I do ride with a group,and do acknowledge passing riders-even when I'm in a 20+ mph paceline!)
Roadies have such a bad reputation...and it is because of incidents like these. Lighten up, roadies -- you'll never be more than a clydesdale-class Cat. 4, and that's if you're lucky!
I was riding back to my car on Saturday out there from biking the trails coated in dirt and I still got a wave from a couple of guys on road bikes. I make it a habit to wave to anyone and everyone while I'm on my road bike. Just common courtesy.
