We’ve all had one of those rides: a motorist (or pedestrian, or even a fellow cyclist!) has made us fear for our lives while we’re cycling and we want to yell and scream and make them understand how scary it is to have your life threatened while you’re on your bike.
It’s especially common for those of us who ride day in, day out in congested cities where we vie for increasingly crowded space on the roads.
The Rant Room and its community will listen, laugh and help you move on.
The relationship between other road users and cyclists seems to be strained to breaking point, exacerbated by a media intent on fuelling the perceived divisions between the various camps. It’s sad that the media and commentators seem to forget that many cyclists are also motorists – we should all be on the same side, fighting for safer and fairer roads.
This is why we at Vamper.cc have developed the Rant Room: it is our bid to take the frustration off the roads and hopefully temper it with a little humour and perspective.
The Rant Room is designed to give you a place to either anonymously or openly ‘vent spleen’ – be it at yourself for just not giving it enough; fellow cyclists for all manner of misdemeanors; motorists for cutting you up; your dog for chewing up your cycling shoes; or just the universe, when it seems to be conspiring against you.
The Rant Room and its community will listen, laugh and help you move on.
The simple interface allows you to simply post your rant anonymously or with a first name. This can then be shared and up or down voted by the other Ranters.
When the adrenaline starts flowing and you think it is time to give someone a piece of your mind – Save it for the Rant Room and not the road.
