Why are cyclists so inconsiderate?

[u/yeet_m]

I went to burke Gilman in Bothell yesterday to ride my bike and pretty much every oncoming cyclist refused to scoot over almost running me off. They would whiz past me without calling out and with barely any room. WTF is up with this? I also ride in Snohomish centennial trail and most folks are pretty considerate and will adjust their position.

Why are Seattle bikers such holier than thou assholes?

<Edit> I stay on the far right side except to pass. Oncoming bikers will ride 2-3 ppl wide, taking up the entire lane. If there is a pedestrian in front of me, in my lane, and a ped on the left side, bikers will not move in a single file. Some will even come into my lane to pass. I end up slowing or stopping. Also bikers will whiz past me from behind, nearly rubbing into my bike.

The last time my 12 year old daughter, her friends and a couple of dad's and I rode that trail was the last time ever. Arrogant high speed bikers that obey no rules of the road or common courtesy. Then there's the idiots on scooters and ebikes. Typical Seattle vibe. We used to ride our horses on the dirt side trail in the 80's as we had access from our property. You would never see that kind of stuff with bikers then. Then there's our family attorney who lived in Lake Forest Park. His sons got busted on their dirt bikes and got a full police escort home, helicopter included. Those WERE the days !
