Noisy effing cyclists

[AnxiousPixie]

We have lived in our village for years. The last couple we seem to have ended up on a very popular route for large groups of cyclists.

I have no problem with cyclists on the road but we live on a corner and a junction and they shout at each other constantly as they cycle past. It's constant all day.

Sometimes just that the junction is clear, sometimes what they are having for dinner or sometimes, like this morning, how much of a bitch his wife was! There have been five groups already this morning since 6am, which has woken the kids (6 and 3). All shouting at each other as they ride past.

I know AIBU to expect anything from people when they are outside my house and on a
public road but it's it unreasonable not to expect people to be quiet outside anyone's house at 6am on a Sunday morning!??

Rant over, made me feel better, thanks.

😡🤬

I’d be tempted to put a sign in the window before I went to bed (if I thought they could read it from the road). Or when you hear them, swing the window open and holler out telling them to STFU. Angry Basil Fawlty style.

Do you have neighbours? There must be others near you who are also fed up with it.

You’d think that most people would be aware that shouting near houses at unsociable hours is inconsiderate and antisocial but maybe they are so unaware that they hadn’t really thought about it.

We get this too though our house is quite a long way from our boundary so only hear it by the garage and quite enjoy seeing people out enjoying the weather. To be honest there is no country idyll here. The farmers with their tractors work all hours when the weather is right, and the birds can make such a racket! It's rude of them to shout by houses though.

Not forgetting low flying fighter jets on training and pleasure-trip helicopter rides on repeat. I don't think a sign or water/jam pistol would work with those particular noise nuisances....
