When paceline pullers don't point out road hazards...

She actually had the nerve to tell my friend that it "isn't really all that expensive to replace a frame." Can you believe that sh!t?!

Tell the idiot that she has dug a pretty deep hole and if she keeps up this arrogant attitutde, she's gonna get sued!! I would and cause some inconvenience for the idiot!!

I wonder how far riders in our situation could even get with a suit. We definitely have witnesses who stated at the time that they didn't see her point at the hose. And she even said "oh, I was so far ahead that maybe the next person didn't see me point." What was she doing so far ahead that she had dropped the rest of the paceline?!

I honestly think you guys need to get together and politely 'disinvite' her from this group. There is no reason you shouldn't be able to ride. Have a spokesperson who is very diplomatic talk for everyone, either by email or in person.

She shouldn't be allowed to do this to anyone else. But I think all the reasons you mentioned should be pointed out to her. Both the history and the recent crash. Because maybe that will keep her from doing it in the future.

JMTC.

Hell, give me her email. I'll do it.

Ha, it's tempting!

Actually this thought had crossed my mind. One of DH's co-workers will sometimes ride with us and she's quite un-fond of this woman, as well (I suspect most of us don't like her, but have never before been in a position to discuss it). I think the biggest issue we'd run into is that she's pretty chummy with the group leader. At this point I think simply not riding with the group is a better course of action. There are so many rides all week around here that it's no challenge to find a substitute ride.
