There HAS to be something missing from this story.
Nope absolutely nothing missing, it happened exactly as I described above. I called out "on your left" to let him know I would be passing on his left and as I passed he said "well that's just rude." Not sure what was so rude, but it was the first time it had ever happened so I was just checking to see if maybe I did something wrong.

That's what I figured so that's why I called it out, just to let him know I would be passing him on his left. Thought that was the nice thing to do.
