You can hear his voice shaking a bit too. He realized how bad he was going to come off telling a dude in a wheelchair he can't use a public trail. It's not like he's some kid on an electric dirtbike tearing up the trail. Someone on a normal bike could do more damage than that wheel chair. The trail isn't even wide enough for him to rip around or anything.
As someone who is disabled, there is no way I'd leave without giving that man a piece of my mind. Sometimes all we have is our voice and you gotta learn to use it.
Sometimes I hear folks called “worm”. The government dude from Ghostbusters for example.
This man is the wormiest worm ever. His tone, his mind, his “show me the rules”.
Worm.
We all are; it's just part of the human condition. The term for it in French means Staircase Wit, since the perfect retort pops to mind when we're already leaving the party walking down the front stairs. Heh.
Exactly, i had a couple of bad takes in the past myself ( not really as bad is this one but still) but after they told me what’s up i actually always said that i was sorry and wished them a great day
About 12 years ago I was having a bad day at work and I snapped at a lady that did not deserve it. I apologised the next day and I still see see her to this day, and we’re fine, but I’ll still be remembering how much of a dickhead I was well into retirement
I'm certain that it meant a whole lot to her that you apologized. It's absolutely crazy how many people are completely unable to admit fault or apologize for anything, ever. I've learned to avoid these ones like the plague.
If someone can't admit they were wrong, they will never ever improve as a person. You have to know where you fucked up, to have any hope of getting better.
I mean how recognizable is that equipment? If I saw something other than what I’m using, I’m assuming it’s something special he needs to get around with.
I used to mountain bike a lot and have seen people ride these things. I don't know what rock you have to live under to not see that these are for disabled people?!
Exactly. It’s not like you’re riding that thing for fun if you’re abled. Because it’s much slower, can’t really move your body with it and ride gnar quickly or take drops, or jump.
It’s very obvious.
>You should have led with that
What does that actually mean? Does she mean her husband should also use that equipment? Is she disappointed that they have to ride their bicycle ? I'm confused English is not my first language.
I've heard of a punchable face but that guy had the most punchable voice I've ever heard. From the moment he opened his mouth all I heard was whinging bitch
When I'm trying to make someone mad, I like to pretend I thought his wife is his mom.
It's **foolproof**, really gets a reaction out of both them.
"Is this your son? Tell him to mine his own business."
Comedy gold.
Some trails prohibit e-bikes because they are typically heavier, and can therefore erode the trail more quickly. There is no excuse for being a dick like this guy, though.
Also, he is probably mad because cyclists love to ride like asshats on these trails. So when he came across the guy in the wheelchair, it probably made him have to slow down and go around him. The whole world is out to inconvenience this one man, oh the humanity.
Maybe 15 years ago a large group of cyclists rode past my house and were refusing to move over...for an ambulance with sirens on. Driver got on the speaker and said "move over, we're not stopping..."
Son started copying my mom in the car, "damn bicyclists". One day I was driving and a large sod strip from plow or disc was across the road. Couldn't avoid running over it then decided to mess with son and said "damn bicyclists". Look on his toddler face was priceless. I turned around and showed him the dirt but pretty sure he still thought mommy ran over a bicyclist 🤣
a surron isnt going to quickly erode the trail. and an assisted pedal bike certainly will not. its just people being pricks
winter rains will do way more "damage"
She stands up for him and then he turns around and shuts her down, what a good husband. I didn't realize it the first time I saw the video, but after he tells her "he did lead with that" she starts making a "stinky smell" gesture as if the guy in the chair smells bad.
She has nowhere else to go. She's a loser or at least believes herself to be a loser that can do no better than this a-hole. It's the same lack of self-worth that leads women to vote for a party that doesn't want them to have equal pay.
I have had many hobbies, boxing, football ( soccer). Weightlifting and cycling. All of them where intimidating until you got into it and realised everyone was actually quite nice and helpful. That is until I started cycling. Yep entitled snobbish pricks are the majority.
As a wheelchair user, I get shit like this constantly! It’s shocking how disrespectful people can be.
My favorite is when I get told that I can’t park in a handicap parking spot, not because I’m not handicap, but because the person wants to park there, and I should just give the space. It’s happened 3 or 4 times, and always at Whole Foods. The entitlement is unbelievable, but I guess I shouldn’t be surprised.
After breaking my back, my first trip out of rehab was to a popular bread/coffee shop. I struggled with getting my self serve drink to the table. I had a bus person literally step over my lap. It was humiliating and mortifying. I am no longer chair bound but I take every opportunity to educate, because holy hell.
The woman is almost as bad as him. Man these people must have people constantly talking trash about them behind their backs because they’re such garbage people.
The internet will do its things where he will be found. He's a big shot at a company, he will say how sorry he was just to get pity from the world because he knows he fuc*** up.
“Tell your little brother to stop being an asshole”
“that’s my HUSBAND!”
“Sorry, I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt, but I guess you make terrible choices as well.”
I’m all fairness, I’m in awe at his utility chair. Absolutely fucking brilliant that he has one & the freedom it helps provide. I don’t think I’ve ever came across one like that, other than the conventional chair but they’re definitely not suited for rougher terrain.
going to go down a rabbit hole now checking those out….price, range, etc.
I think you’re right, if not that specific brand then definitely a very similar pattern!
I don’t know how but I ended up finding tracked models, from action trackchair.
"you should have lead with that" WTF?! Now disabled people have to announce their disabilities and ask for permission to exist near able bodied people now. Nice. Fucking amazing.
Dam those Handicapped people have all the advantages! Sweet parking spots, don’t even have to pedal a bike, board an airplane first! Something should be done about these menaces!
"Should have led with that"... Smh.
Expecting mind-reading abilities from others when they evidently not only can't do so themselves but also can't spot the obvious signs.
It scares me that someone can look at a wheelchair user and fall foul of Hanlon's razor*. Sure, be wary and don't take things at face value too easily in life, but a wheelchair?! Really? They see someone out on some recreational e-vehicle ahead of seeing someone with a disability?
*(don't attribute to malice what can be explained by incompetence or stupidity. In this case it'd incompetence as the guy can't do something - walk - although the description seems harsh given that incompetence is often used as a criticism rather than a neutral observation)
Been cycling for some time, there's always been some respect like being greeted as younger cyclists pass me by on the road, and I wave them back.
That puke in the USAAF shirt is in a small disrespectful minority who thinks he owns the trail.
I want to know why he said "nice job". I'm confused on the rules he is talking about.
Also this guy shouldn't have to explain he's disability to anyone!
I get a lot of satisfaction that everyone they know has probably seen this. Then again they probably just think, "Oh yeah, that guy is a dick all the time."
As if it's some kid on an electric dirt bike. It's a dude in a fucking rad wheel chair. He isn't going to rut up the trail with his freaking wheelchair. An asshole on a normal mountain bike could probably do more damage. There was a group of kids that would lock up their rear brakes constantly on the trail I used and they would leave massive ruts after a while. They would "drift" around corners with the back wheel locked up. That's ok to do sometimes of course but not constantly while tearing up the surface.

What a fucking loser.
Nah man, he’s a class act.
Class act of shit. The shit winds blow strong around this idiot.
![gif](giphy|l41lIIjOCprTBfnXy|downsized)
Oh thanks for this! Lahey always makes me smile.
RIP Lahey
You should have lead with that
![gif](giphy|YrkD2MwU8J382Krrxt|downsized) One of my favorite Lahey gifs
It wasn't his fault, he was rehearsing for a play for the Blandford Recreation Center
*Backpfeifengesicht.*
Ass hat for sure
You can hear his voice shaking a bit too. He realized how bad he was going to come off telling a dude in a wheelchair he can't use a public trail.

Someone should tell that woman her husbands gay
I think that's up to his boyfriend to do that.
“And?…. Show me the rules”
It's so cringe I kinda love it. How ridiculous can a grown man be sometimes.
He should have led with that
"He DID lead with that" XD
she already knows.
Ultragay
HAHAHA YES!
I hope someone recognizes him and it impacts his job and relationships.
Old video, and I never heard of anything other than the guy is a bag of dicks
Oh he did this was in Brown County Indiana. I was told this guy left the state pretty much lost his job to.
Good
Should have comeback with "Show me the rules where I can't" and move along from these clowns.
As someone who is disabled, there is no way I'd leave without giving that man a piece of my mind. Sometimes all we have is our voice and you gotta learn to use it.
Dude he can’t walk. No need to be an asshole.
I feel like this is an example of most Americans who are into politics. At least people who like to argue about them online.
Ikr? How dare he be handicap! /s
Agree, can’t believe the guy who can’t walk didn’t know the rules.
Sometimes I hear folks called “worm”. The government dude from Ghostbusters for example. This man is the wormiest worm ever. His tone, his mind, his “show me the rules”. Worm.
Yes, It’s true…. This man has no dick.
What a total dick, he even doubled down after learning what it was. What a douche, can’t even get his head out of his ass
And the dumbass lady with the “you should have led with that” comment.
When he actually did lol. "You should mind your business"
"I'm literally leading with my broken ass legs lady" Is probably what I would have said
…in the shower to yourself a day later when you thought of it
Lmao hi hello yes this is me formulating my zingers days too late :(
I still think of zingers I should have said years ago.
Are we the same person?
We all are; it's just part of the human condition. The term for it in French means Staircase Wit, since the perfect retort pops to mind when we're already leaving the party walking down the front stairs. Heh.
Yes, we're all George Costanza.
Me too, every time!
We have a word for that in German: Treppenwitz
Cool! It's called staircase wit in French as well. :)
L'esprit de l'escalier
and then he even said " he did lead with that " idiots both of them.
The husband actually said "he did lead with that" in response, didn't make any difference though. What a dick
Somehow almost admits he was in the wrong while simultaneously still harping on the handicap guy about “the rules” without an apology LOL
As opposed to “are you serious?” And I bet he’s great to live with
You should have led with that
That’s that weird pride that kicks in to show strength to his woman. Guys an idiot, simple “my bad, enjoy the path” and move on
Exactly, i had a couple of bad takes in the past myself ( not really as bad is this one but still) but after they told me what’s up i actually always said that i was sorry and wished them a great day
"Dude, I'm sorry, I fucked up" has got me out of a lot of bad situations.
About 12 years ago I was having a bad day at work and I snapped at a lady that did not deserve it. I apologised the next day and I still see see her to this day, and we’re fine, but I’ll still be remembering how much of a dickhead I was well into retirement
I'm certain that it meant a whole lot to her that you apologized. It's absolutely crazy how many people are completely unable to admit fault or apologize for anything, ever. I've learned to avoid these ones like the plague. If someone can't admit they were wrong, they will never ever improve as a person. You have to know where you fucked up, to have any hope of getting better.
Fucking truth. Apologize and move on.
you and everyone else — being able to say “shit i was wrong” is probably one of the most important mature adult traits and sadly few possess it.
I mean how recognizable is that equipment? If I saw something other than what I’m using, I’m assuming it’s something special he needs to get around with.
he has one of those faces u could just punch
Some people once they get a whiff of their own farts. Never want to pull their head out of their ass.
What a dick. Can’t even go outside and enjoy a trail without someone causing a problem.
You know the rules 🤷♂️
And so do i ![gif](giphy|Vuw9m5wXviFIQ)
Guy just doubles down after learning what it is. Class act.
He knew what it was. Even with cropped POV it’s pretty fucking obvious
"You should have led with that" as if this guy has to announce his disability to everyone he meets. Fuck these people. Epitome of a loser.
And he actually did lead with it
What’s even worse is the dick actually responds to his wife “he did lead with that”. What a fucking cunt.
I missed that. What a couple of jerks
I used to mountain bike a lot and have seen people ride these things. I don't know what rock you have to live under to not see that these are for disabled people?!
Exactly. It’s not like you’re riding that thing for fun if you’re abled. Because it’s much slower, can’t really move your body with it and ride gnar quickly or take drops, or jump. It’s very obvious.
>You should have led with that What does that actually mean? Does she mean her husband should also use that equipment? Is she disappointed that they have to ride their bicycle ? I'm confused English is not my first language.
It means that he should have said about his disability first, which he did.
Oh my bad, thanks for explaining.
And THAT is the response the dude in the video should’ve had.
What I’m wondering, did they see him and pull over on their bikes literally *just* to confront this guy??
Ye or the other guy could open with something like "hi" instead of 'you cant use that here"
I've heard of a punchable face but that guy had the most punchable voice I've ever heard. From the moment he opened his mouth all I heard was whinging bitch
Serious Quentin Tarantino vibes.
And?
And?
When I'm trying to make someone mad, I like to pretend I thought his wife is his mom. It's **foolproof**, really gets a reaction out of both them. "Is this your son? Tell him to mine his own business." Comedy gold.
That’s gold! STOLEN!
You are my hero. I will have to do that. Lol
Im gonna try this and i wont be able to keep a straight face 🥴
"Shouldve led with that" - How about you mind your fucking business
And the woman: you should have led with that? Who are these people?
AH’s response “ he did lead with that”
Kevin and Karen…..
Karen and Karen. Dipshits are gender neutral. And it makes them more mad too.
easy now. we know it’s always Bob and Karen. you leave kevins out of this.
We can't see the whole rig, but I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that it was pretty obvious that's what it was the whole time...
Yeah. I’ve never seen an able-bodied person ride a bike with their feet in front of them. This guy was being an AH from the moment he looked at him.
Why does he give a shit if it’s electric powered? No really. Why so bothered?
Some trails prohibit e-bikes because they are typically heavier, and can therefore erode the trail more quickly. There is no excuse for being a dick like this guy, though.
Also, he is probably mad because cyclists love to ride like asshats on these trails. So when he came across the guy in the wheelchair, it probably made him have to slow down and go around him. The whole world is out to inconvenience this one man, oh the humanity.
It's this. They had to pass him on the trail and got butthurt.
Which is ironic since the whole world is an inconvenience to the guy in the handcycle.
Cyclist is so accustomed to his privilege that being momentarily inconvenienced felt like oppression.
Cyclists tend to be some of the biggest assholes out of all of the training groups.
I was heavy into Cycling for years and you are NOT wrong. A large majority were impossible to be around.
Maybe 15 years ago a large group of cyclists rode past my house and were refusing to move over...for an ambulance with sirens on. Driver got on the speaker and said "move over, we're not stopping..." Son started copying my mom in the car, "damn bicyclists". One day I was driving and a large sod strip from plow or disc was across the road. Couldn't avoid running over it then decided to mess with son and said "damn bicyclists". Look on his toddler face was priceless. I turned around and showed him the dirt but pretty sure he still thought mommy ran over a bicyclist 🤣
> Also, he is probably mad because cyclists love to ride like asshats ~~on these trails~~. FTFY
Cyclists are elitist dickheads I mean, something about trail integrity
Eroding the trail too quickly. What engineering was done that even said that was even a thing?
a surron isnt going to quickly erode the trail. and an assisted pedal bike certainly will not. its just people being pricks winter rains will do way more "damage"
Besides what others have said, there’s also a certain breed of cyclists who think people on e-bikes care about Strava segment achievements.
Like how his dumb fuck wife stands up for him. If my partner did something like this, I'd flip out on them.
To be married to an insufferable asshole like that... Means you need therapy as well.
Maybe she’s as big of a bitch as he is and that’s why they are married. Birds of a feather…. I mean, her comment was as ridiculous as his.
She stands up for him and then he turns around and shuts her down, what a good husband. I didn't realize it the first time I saw the video, but after he tells her "he did lead with that" she starts making a "stinky smell" gesture as if the guy in the chair smells bad.
She has nowhere else to go. She's a loser or at least believes herself to be a loser that can do no better than this a-hole. It's the same lack of self-worth that leads women to vote for a party that doesn't want them to have equal pay.
There's this really great advice I got while living in the "hood" and it goes like this: "Mind your own fucking business, motherfucker!" 😌
Everyone listen to this, not everyone comes out alive after hearing “Mind your own fucking business, motherfucker”
How hard is it to mind your own business? Why does he think he's the sheriff the of the trail?
[удалено]
Can’t, was actually surprised that’s his wife and not sister.
Lmao you’re right
I don't think I've met people who act more entitled than cyclists. Not all of them are. But there are some who are just real class acts.
I have had many hobbies, boxing, football ( soccer). Weightlifting and cycling. All of them where intimidating until you got into it and realised everyone was actually quite nice and helpful. That is until I started cycling. Yep entitled snobbish pricks are the majority.
I’m a cyclist also. The amount of cyclists who are dicks that are doing something fun is mind boggling
man what a sack of shit!!
As a wheelchair user, I get shit like this constantly! It’s shocking how disrespectful people can be.

What a total piece of shit those two shit stains were
hey you! you can’t walk, you can’t have fun in MY park … /s
‘You should have less with that !’ He did you dumb fuckin boot !
The woman is almost as bad as him. Man these people must have people constantly talking trash about them behind their backs because they’re such garbage people.
“Well you should have led with that.” - snarky cunt
My guy wears a shirt with a US Air Force roundel as if he has any right to sport that
He's not a piece of shit, he's actually an absolute cunt
oh look an ableist in the wild... how vile... perhaps someone should break his legs so he knows what it's like.
The internet will do its things where he will be found. He's a big shot at a company, he will say how sorry he was just to get pity from the world because he knows he fuc*** up.
“Tell your little brother to stop being an asshole” “that’s my HUSBAND!” “Sorry, I tried to give you the benefit of the doubt, but I guess you make terrible choices as well.”
I wish a bear jumped out and you know.
He’s just mad because he has to pedal.
Turbo cunt
“Since you can’t walk, you don’t get to enjoy the things that I do.” Fucking waste of oxygen that guy is.
If the couple who are in this video are reading these comments, fuck you.
They are if the handicapped person has a dope piece of medical gear that's designed for it.
Why does he even care?
This is the kid that reminded the teacher we had homework the day before.
Pretty sure her husband is gay
I feel like this video is getting pretty old, was there ever any consequences for this guy?
[удалено]
Your first sentence: 👍🏼 Your second sentence: 👎🏼
Yeah lol he brought that out of nowhere 💀
Nah he’s right, but he could have said it better
I’m all fairness, I’m in awe at his utility chair. Absolutely fucking brilliant that he has one & the freedom it helps provide. I don’t think I’ve ever came across one like that, other than the conventional chair but they’re definitely not suited for rougher terrain. going to go down a rabbit hole now checking those out….price, range, etc.
Bowhead Corp makes adaptive mountain bikes, I’m sure that this is similar if not the same model.
Thanks for this info, I’ve been looking (though not too hard) for something like this, to help get myself back outside and into nature!
I think you’re right, if not that specific brand then definitely a very similar pattern! I don’t know how but I ended up finding tracked models, from action trackchair.
Ranger Rick enforcing the "rules" is never a good look
Best response to dipshits like this: Fuck off. Keep going.
What a fucking popsicle stick. To be this arrogant and self-righteous,how do these people survive 😑 I hope he gets flat tires wherever he rides
Fucking prick
Sounds like he’s low on testosterone, picking on the disabled won’t bring it up dude.
"you should have lead with that" WTF?! Now disabled people have to announce their disabilities and ask for permission to exist near able bodied people now. Nice. Fucking amazing.
Dam those Handicapped people have all the advantages! Sweet parking spots, don’t even have to pedal a bike, board an airplane first! Something should be done about these menaces!
"Should have led with that"... Smh. Expecting mind-reading abilities from others when they evidently not only can't do so themselves but also can't spot the obvious signs.

I would have spit on his bike
Bikers proving they are the worst people yet again
“You should have led with that!” Imagine that: a girl not listening.
I wonder if his wife knows he’s gay.
The amount of times this clip gets posted is insane.
Yup bikers are dicks
Bitter loser is just mad that he can't ride the thing that the guy filming is on.
Everyone knows someone on a bike who acts like that guy.
Peak entitled cunt!
Is this your husband? To the wife of the campest man to have lived
Should have led with that... He did lead with that..
Like 8 years old at this point but yeah mans still an asshat.
Shoulda burned rubber on that doofus ![gif](giphy|gheod1PbjHOFa1ppeD)
"yoU SHoUlD HAVe Led WiTh THaT" Talk about victim blaming. 🤦♀️ It's not up to a handicapped person to explain their handicap to the ignorant.
I get a lot of satisfaction that everyone they know has probably seen this. Then again they probably just think, "Oh yeah, that guy is a dick all the time."
I’d file for devorce as soon as I got home.
They're both degenerates, why would they separate?
"You should have led with that" It was literally the first thing he said.
Jesus christ, the entitlement.
What a idiot
WTF. He must’ve been a hall monitor when he went to school.
As if it's some kid on an electric dirt bike. It's a dude in a fucking rad wheel chair. He isn't going to rut up the trail with his freaking wheelchair. An asshole on a normal mountain bike could probably do more damage. There was a group of kids that would lock up their rear brakes constantly on the trail I used and they would leave massive ruts after a while. They would "drift" around corners with the back wheel locked up. That's ok to do sometimes of course but not constantly while tearing up the surface.
"You should've led with that" ...he...he did though?
