Cyclist bad manners?

There were roadworks on my journey today which kept us waiting for 20 minutes so quite a few cars waiting. Just before we were allowed past a cyclist came up behind us but decided to pass us all and wait at the front. Once we were past the roadworks the road is very windy so it took a couple of miles before I could safely pass never mind all the other cars he had pushed past.
AIBU to think it was bad manners for the cyclist to whizz past us all and keep us all waiting. Most cyclists seem sensible but every now and again I come across a complete idiot who seems to think the road belongs to him.

Hagridy, you're not convincing me that all those big metal boxes driving every where are safe either, but I guess you feel your safety takes priority

Mine doesn't

its a solution, the solo commuting car and the bike are solutions for many. The less drivers on the roads the swifter you'll get about in a car without congestion

In fairness I think the twizy had 2 seats but they're in single file so I'd say it still counts
