If I understand what OP raised, he's talking about the routine bile you see in comments under bike related stories in local newspapers, or in the social media comments, or routinely on FB groups whenever cycling is mentioned. It's pretty general and widespread bile to be honest, usually in relation to announcements on safer infrastructure or road redesign but not exclusively.

You do see people whinge about cyclists riding two abreast as well. If anyone gets truly riled by this it's usually a sign to me that they ought to hand their driving licence back in or retake their test, as it indicates they don't understand how and when it's safe to overtake, or why people riding two abreast is safer for everyone (a line of cyclists naturally takes longer to overtake, therefore presenting a greater risk of collision with something coming the other way).
