Right on...ever drive your car and get in a fender bender?; those jerkwad drivers. Or ever get in an accident with another cyclist?; man we all know about them and where they can go stick stuff. Or walking down a crowded sidewalk and some idiot has the nerve to bump into you...don't they see I'm walkin' there? the nerve of some people. Or this one time...working in the garage this damn f-ing screwdriver leaps out of my hand and the handle hit that soft part on top of my foot. How dare that handle do that, so selfish.<br />

I had an encounter with some cyclists when I was on a drive this summer with my car club on back roads in WI. It was awful, we all drove by smiling and waving at them, they rode by smiling and waving at us....just awfull. I hope that level of disrespect never enters thechainlink.

If I know the motorist is too scared to bludgeon me with their vehicle, the phrase "get out of the car" normally ends such confrontations. The motorist is then unable to ignore how much a cyclist is put at risk and how uncomfortable they would be shouting insults with out their metal and glass enclosure to keep them safe.

And then, apparently, there are the joggers. A woman was jogging in the northbound bike lane of Wells (just south of Division) last night and, as a bike passed her on the left, actually indicated with a forward motion of her arms that she had the space in front of her. Of course, the space she was taking up required cyclists to swerve into traffic to go around her. Entitlement is the right word for such self-centered behavior, but it's not strong enough. Maybe arrogantitlement?<br />

Brian, I know this was very frustrating and I do hope you got home safely and without another incident after the NSCM. Unfortunately it is idiots like that who make it unsafe for bicylists. Be Safe and good riding. :-)
