People that ride their bikes on the road when there is a big sidewalk available to them.

in most areas it's actually legally correct for a bicyclist to ride on the road. this is why busier cities have bicycle lanes as part of the road. the sidewalk is for exactly that.

I'm not talking about roads with bicycle lanes. They ride in the middle of the road going 15 mph while the rest of use are stuck behind them.

even without bicycle only lanes, bikes are still allowed to ride on the street so long as they obey traffic rules like any other vehicle. if somebody is riding "in the middle of the road" i think that's a problem be it bicycle, motorcycle, car, or any vehicle.

your actual pet peeve then should be bicyclists that don't obey traffic rules or think they own the road.
