That's right, you got it. If they were bold enough to get out of their car and approach me, I'll do my best to be sure they not going get a second chance back into that vehicle and run me over or brake check me to give me a lesson such as that guy did down in southern Ca killing those cyclist. I was a victim for not taking action ASAP.

I will say this though, I rather avoid the situation if whenever possible. If they got a gun, they can take my bike, purse, and hope that will be the worst of it, but sometimes you are not given a choice like if they are drunk or on drugs. If it help the matter any, I have to ride through Oakland, Ca and not always in the best of area. I rather not, but there are few individual I have to visit here and commuting by bike leave me no choice. These so call "scene by scene scenerio" might be ridiculous to some folks, but you better off to be prepare for the worst than to just be f**king froze when it happens to you. The first time was a shame on the aggressor, if it happens again the second time, then it's shame in me! Third time? Screw that!
