This morning the traffic lights jumped from yellow to red just as I was approaching a pedestrian crossing. I stopped. A man and a small boy were standing on the sidewalk, waiting. The man turns to me and comments angrily or sarcastically:
Zu müde zum velofahren? (= too tired to cycle?)
I responded that I have a red light.
Somewhat weird comment. And he sounded angry.
Perhaps I didn’t fit in with his view of “rowdy” cyclists that ignore traffic lights.
