Yeah, I put up a post yesterday about this; and it ended up happening today.

I was going through a green light intersection, when a guy takes a left hand turn at the light, basically trying to go through me. I do a stoppie (rear wheel off of the ground), and then he stops a second (a reasonably long delay), right in my path, about five feet in front of me.

I wasn't incredibly happy to have to do a 3/4-panic stop, and then to sit there and block my path was kinda icing on the cake. There had to be at least twenty cars watching us at the time. I yell at him 'What the F are you doing' before I could even think about what I was saying. I point to where he was headed, and say 'Just Go!'.

He yelled some choice words to me that I couldn't understand. Twenty or thirty seconds later, someone pulled up along side of me and gave me some encouragement, that I also couldn't understand.

On the plus side of things, the new Kool-Stops work well.
