[ETC-Discussion] Helpful Friendly Cyclists (or not)

[Jay and Sara]

Beware...so  ALL tandem riders are not helpful and ALL single bike riders 
are? Perhaps in this instance.

I think not. Sorry you had that experience, but I'm afraid I beg to differ 
if you are trying to imply something here.

I think some of the nicest people you will EVER meet ride tandems, and 
singles, and triples for that matter.

Again, your experience is your experience, and maybe tandem riders must take 
note. Clearly a case of blatant stereotyping IMHO.
