Is there snobbery? Sadly there is, but it may help if we put this into some sort of social context.
There really are some dreadful Oiks out there on bicycles.
One does try to be civil, but they can be terribly difficult to understand, even when their speech extends beyond the usual grunts and mumbles of the lumpen proletariat.
I find that ignoring these awful people is often the best policy. Some of them insist on wearing matching shorts and top. There are others who go as far as to co-ordinate their entire strip with their bicycle.
How utterly, utterly ghastly of them. Quite the opposite of the done thing.
Is there snobbery? Well dahling, sometimes the people one meets make any other response quite impossible.
It really is too, too much sometimes!
