I need to train myself to spit right. There are certain things that seem to have a handedness or side preference, and spitting while cycling is one of them for me! (Naturally, I always look to verify that I'm not going to expectorate on a passing cyclist--or car, for that matter.)<br />

"He was on my wheel for a bit going down Milwaukee (10pm), and then decided to pass me on the right, and I asked to give me a warning next time. He gets about 5 feet in front and turns around then spits, not down but up and towards me. He then takes off, running all the red lights, hence the reason I didn't chase him down, and frankly I was just to tired."</div>

For the record the Spitter does NOT hangout at Smart Bike Parts. No one at the shop is his friend nor associates with him outside of a customer-LBS relation.<br />

I just happened to recognize him based on the description in the first post.<br />

Don't drag Smart Bike Parts name through the mud.
