I think bike path riders in general fall into a totally separate category. Labeling people riding road bikes on the bike path's as "roadies" is just not accurate. I label these people as "bike path warriors." These are people that are usually only recreational riders, and are intimidated by actually riding on the roads. They also tend to be rude, inconsiderate, and rather inexperienced when it comes to all aspects of riding, besides of course, parking their truck/suv at the entrance of the bike path, riding to one end of the path, turning around, riding back to their car, and being total douche bags for the duration of that time. I rarely ride the bike paths here in town to avoid these types.
