I was cycling behind a 60 year old 6ft 6" transvestite/transgender today and when I was about to pass her she stuck out 5 6" red nails, I continued passing her and wondered if the nail polish wasn't dry yet and she went out cycling to speed up the process. But it turned out she wanted to make a left turn which was way too long ahead to already start moving to the left side, and she got mad at me saying that you can't pass if someone sticks out a hand. I replied that if we are going to nitpick about the rules, she had to look behind her first.

No one obeys that rule, but normally people just stop pedalling or give a small handsignal just before turning and it's up to the cyclist behind not to hit the other. Don't start nitpicking the rules with me because I'm better at that, allthough I don't care much for the rules. I have seen her a few times before, it's not the kind of person that goes unnoticed easily, and she seemed very friendly and I've never been afraid of road rage here. Nontheless, when I cycled on I got this image in my head of getting into a fight with a person 2" taller than me taking off her 7 inch stiletto (matching colour with the nails, size 15 probably) to hit me on the head with it, and me only escaping because of her tight dress.
