Yesterday I had to school another cyclist. Bottom of a hill, there's a stop sign. Car in front of me stops. I stop behind car. Car has right turn signal blinking.

Idiot cyclist comes up from behind, passes both of us on the left, and just swings through the right turn next to the car that has already started the turn. Cyclist is in the oncoming lane for a while because the driver isn't giving him any quarter. Fine by me.

So that all sorts out and the car turns into a parking lot. I whipped up behind the cyclist and sucked his wheel until he realized I was back there, then I dropped him like a bad habit.
