a beginner cyclist, either road (especially master's 35+, category 4) or fixie/single speed, distinguished by disregard for rules, laws, codes, safety, common sense, and courteous behavior and an absence of physical fitness.
characteristics specific to master's 35+ racers include rigs equipped with power meters and costing up to $11K and righteously indignant verbosity. characteristics specific to fixie/single speed riders include excessive and inappropriate pride in the willful ugliness of their machines.
primary motivations for acquiring a bicycle are friends or rivals who ride, doctor's orders to lose weight or succumb to chronic illness, feelings of disconnectedness and alienation, and of not being cool enough.

a 35+ road gaper was stopped facing westbound in the eastbound bike lane. he had to wait for southbound traffic to pass in order to cross. i was driving south and executed a right turn in front of him. he started screaming desperately for me to stop stop stop!!! oh dear, how unpleasant.
at 1030 pm was driving eastbound on madison at about 23 mph, 2 mph below the speed limit. i passed a fixie gaper doing about 12 mph with no headlight or tail light. he started screaming and cursing as i went by.

The holdup in traffic caused by drivers slowing down to see what happened in an accident or other event on the road. See also rubberneck.
The wrecked car was cleared from the road but the traffic was still slowed due to the gaper's block.

An old woman that is into anal gaping or an old man that enjoys giving grandma a good gaping every now and then.
From the sounds I heard last night coming from grandpa’s room, I’d say he’s a granny gaper.
I really reached a low point last night and fapped off watching amateur videos of a granny gaper. I don’t think I will ever be the same.

People that slow down when they see an accident in the road just to see what's going on often causing the people behind them to blare their horn at them to move on down the road!
Happens a lot of times on the Interstates and the speed limit is 60-70wpm!

Everytime we head up to Interstate 40 there is a accident on our side of the road and a Gaper's Block is sure to be seen!

The day (usually April Fool's Day or thereabouts) when all the mountain employees and locals who don't have to work dress up in absurd tourist outfits and imitate all the dumb gaper shit we have to deal with the rest of the year. Usually involves lots of neon clothing, ridiculous stunts, and massive amounts of alcohol.
"It's gaper day! I'm going to wear my dad's 80's onesy."
"I'm going with a camo hunting jacket and jeans and doing the Texas Tuck all day on the greens."

One who is willing to do anything and everything to get to that point where he can legally call "shotgun."
