There's a simple reason: cyclists slow you down. As a driver/cyclist as well, I think you're absolutely right and not just from the perspective of a car driver

There's a simple reason: cyclists slow you down.
As a driver/cyclist as well, I think you're absolutely right and not just from the perspective of a car driver - one of the most rage-inducing things I can experience while on my bike is when a car in front of me causes me to slow down in otherwise open driving conditions.

It seems the reasons for both group is different: motorists because obstacles just add up to their already rather unpredictable commute time. Cyclists, because the energy spent doesn't come from a gas tank. But deep down, when it comes to "rage" it comes down from the same irrational, primitive brain. It's not right for either group.
