Not a great day for a commute.

Clipping along down the bike lane when I spy a fellow commuter in front of me. Cool, this always ups the tempo when I see this guy. Well, before I catch up to him the bike lane merges with traffic for an under pass so I watch my fellow commuter merge just like I have done a 100 times. Then to my surprise I see a little white truck just ahead of me speed up and proceed to jump on this guys tail. I mean just about literally. Here we are slowing down from about 25 mph and this a-hole is 1-2 feet off this cyclists rear tire . Granted, it wasn't my tire but to watch somebody try to threaten and endanger another cyclist with a 3000 # vehicle was more than I could stand. I accellerated and passed the truck, pointed back at him to get his attention. I was now in the right turn lane as was the truck (the other cyclist went straight) and forced the truck to a stop. I then proceed to his drivers window and ask him what the hell he thinks he's doing threatening somebody with a 3000# vehicle? His response, "I don't think bikes should be on the road" This guy is about 60ish (what is it with guys this age?) and I respond that I don't think old angry people should be able to drive but the law disagrees with both of us. His response "I don't care, get off the road". All right...**** this guy, I'm tired of dealing with this crap. I tell him the next time I catch him doing something of this sort I'll rip him out of that truck and beat his arse

Man I'm getting tired of that. Seems like the majority of them are old men..what gives?

In hind site I should have gotten his plate # but I was concerned for the safety of the other cyclist and felt that something had to be done immediately. I swear one of these days I'm going to give somebody a beat down for this type of behavior
