Are gravel bikers to blame..?
everyone seems to have one / shops are pushing them ....if they cant push an electric bike on you
now motorists are even more bolshy , swearing at you for taking space on their road and slowing **** down
specific bike paths are too slow for a road bike , they are double the length and too many corners
maybe someone high up has decided road bikes are not legit

Well a mountain bike would get them further , but the 'do it all' gravel bike trend is forcing the perception that bikes shouldn't be on the road at all

if it gets people active its better than nothing I suppose, but obviously not where they shouldn't be ...
I object to the starting price of any bike being beyond reach , unnecessarily
and a culture of forcing bicyclists to use bike paths or nothing
