On one hand you have crossfitters who think going into a gym and throwing around light weight for 20 reps and doing multiple exercises at once makes them fit, despite ruining their joints. These people are extremely difficult to reason with because they think they are better simply because well, they do crossfit and you don't.

On the other hand, you have cyclists who for the most part seem like reasonable people. Besides wearing ridiculous looking spandex onesies, the problem with these people is that they believe they own which ever roadway their bike is on and frick everyone else. For example on my way to the gym earlier, I came across two cyclists cycling in the middle of a 4 lane road when there was a side walk 10 feet to either side of the road.

So which type is worse?
I have crossfitters by a small margin

Do you mean cyclists? Because cyclists and crossfitters are equally annoying.

I'd actually say cyclists or even intense runners.

Crossfitters, in my experience, are at least friendly. Whack job cultists who didn't get to sit at the cool kids table, but friendly.

Overly intense runners and cyclists are worse. It's like spandex makes normal people into narcissistic maniacs. Saying hello to the obese but running-obsessed lady on the street (as you stroll by sans hydration belt) earns you a glare like you just shite in her front yard. 160 pound cyclists who won't make eye contact with you off the bike will absolutely instigate shite while riding.

Cycilists, Crossfitters keep their nonsense contained to a box or a park.

crossfitters can be annoying but at least they don't affect me directly.

Cyclists think they're finishing up the final leg of the Tour de France while going 25 on a main road with no way to get around them. That does affect me.

Cyclists are worse.

Crossfitters never shut up but at least they don't slow me down when I'm driving. I got stuck behind two cyclists on Dalrymple just last week because I guess they were too good for the bike path

Cyclists because I can't see those fckers in a curve sometimes. I'm doing 50-60 in a curve and they are doing 20. You really just get on their arse in a hurry sometimes. One day I will hit one of them and its not that im driving reckless, its just when they are travelling so much slower than me and my LoS in short there isn't much time to react.

Cyclists by far.. I bet crossfitters know how to stop at a stop sign.

It's illegal for them to ride on the sidewalk, however I never understood why they pick the busiest type of day to ride on some of the busiest streets. I'll go with cyclist for the simple reason that it makes chubby grown men feel the need to wear spandex suits and act like lance Armstrong.

I'm disappointed in the OT. All these replies and no gifs.
