Not too much to tell - a pickup [F-350] coming in from the left stopped 10 feet past the stop sign, then when I was within 10 feet of him decided to scoot forward another 4 feet. I had the right of way and he could easily see me coming, so I maintained my line. No incident, but I was worried about my wife who was half a block behind me. The truck went through the rest of the intersection before she got there, which was good.

On a different note, I tightened up the water-bottle boss bolts on my frame, and stole a bolt from my wife's bike to keep my brake hanger from rotating. The bike is now pretty much silent. No creaks, no groans - just quiet SS efficiency.
