I've fucking had it with the cyclists in my town. I live in Fountain Hills, the one part of the Phoenix area with rolling hills and such. As a result, it's very popular for the Lance Armstrong wannabes and they ride around with their heads up their asses.
Since it is a popular area for them, the town put bike lanes on both sides of all the three big roads. Of course, they have a problem sticking in those lanes. Instead of staying close to the curb, or even in the middle or their lane they are always hugging the outside of the lane or they ride just inside my lane. The best is when 2 or three ride tandem in the lane. It's great when you are sandwiched between a huge SUV on the left and a cyclist encroaching on your lane on the right.
You are supposed to ride in the middle of the lane, not the lane markers. I'm sure they'd be tossing up their spandex-covered arms if I did that to them...
