Usually it's the same people that won't say 'on your left' when passing on a crowded/narrow trail and would just as soon hip check you off the trail for being in their way. Snob might be the right term. Yeah, I see other cyclists all the time just pass people without saying a word.

By then, it wasn't worth it to go home and get them. I know what you mean about not enjoying the gloveless feeling (Hey -- if I remember my gloves tomorrow, I can sing 'You lost that gloveless feeling!).

It is amazing how many fellow cyclists will pass you by when you are in obvious trouble without the simple question: "are you OK?" Good for you - you make us proud, thanks!

When I stopped to ask if she was OK a man turned around and told me he was just resting. He just had double knee replacement surgery. The doctor told him to get a bike and go cycling. Low impact only if there are no hills for him. I haven't seen him again but he was glad I stopped and chatted. not long ago I was out by myself when I came across someone I thought was a woman off the bike and bent over it in a way that instantly told me the person was not doing well.
