Just wait till you get the folks that honk, yell and shake their fists, coming from the opposite direction, with a median in the middle of the road. They *really* want to let me know that I shouldn't be on the road. However, I can almost bet that if they saw a salmoning ninja rider going 5-10 mph in that same spot, they wouldn't do anything about it. Or, honks when you have waited and waited at a red left turn light, nobody is around except for a vehicle that's half a mile away from the intersection, by the time you are headed down the road you wanted to turn on, you hear a loud, loooong, honk of the horn from the car that was half a mile away. Strange people. I bet if I were driving my car, they wouldn't have honked if I would have ran the red left signal.

Some people just don't like to see bicyclists riding in the morning, it just rubs them the wrong way.

Life must really suck to feel the need to act the way some drivers do. You almost feel sorry for them.
