If cars are piling up behind you, you should pull over to let them pass--even if you are in a car--but only if it's safe to do so. The implication in the article is that it's not safe ("to protect myself from stumbling off the edge"), so the "selfish bitch" is the one screaming at the cyclist, not the cyclist herself.

She needs the full width of the road to give a larger margin of error due to speed and to maximize her enjoyment. A simple considerate solution would be to slow down and pull over. The crux of the issue is that people of every persuasion, be it cyclist or driver, would never consider inconveniencing themselves or sacrificing their enjoyment for the good of others. i.e. they are selfish.
