I hate when people walk/jog/skate in bike lanes too, but that was nuts. Kid was lucid the whole time. I gave a description of the guy and his bike to the cops and rode home. Did I make the right call, or should I have chased him down?
Chasing down someone who's already shown a propensity for out-of-proportion violence would have been a bad idea. You made the right call.
