Well, to defend the cyclists somewhat, if someone you didn't know jumped in the middle of your workout without an invite, you might not want to strike up a conversation with them just like that either. I mean, maybe they were doing intervals or something... Anyways, when I ride or run, I'm focused on something other than idle chitchat. Especially on a bike; I don't want to crash! If they were just tooling around, I guess that's different.
I do have to say the cyclist's typical get-up is too gaudy for my taste. "
Hey look at me I'm wearing team <insert obscure Euro-brand here> kit! I'm fast just like my hero!"
I don't put much stock in local competitive cycling. It is the sport of the well heeled, which automatically decreases the pool of competitive athletes.
If it's something you really want to pursue, yeah, get a USED fast/lite bike. It will make you faster than now, but the rest is up to you.
