Got buzzed... Whoa!
Lately, I have been riding a mix of road and bike paths. I am pretty careful which roads I use the bike lane on because drivers here are so unpredictable. I've had people pass me while they are exceeding the speed limit. It makes me uncomfortable, but usually they give me fair space. Yesterday, I got buzzed a little too close for comfort. It was the first time that's happened and it really pissed me off because I was on a residential street right in my own neighborhood. He had plenty of room to give me more room and there were no other cars around. He was just an ass. I think it was a young guy, local college parking sticker on back window, etc. Here's the thing... I knew he was coming but he buzzed so close that I actually yelled, "Whoa!" out loud because I was so surprised. After he passed, I yelled, "Hey!" and put up one hand in a sign of "what the heck was that?!!" But, he was already too far ahead for me to even see if he noticed. Jackass. :-(
