I was having a nice ride until I saw a ghost bike on my route. I found a story about it:
http://la.streetsblog.org/2009/04/22...-bike-appears/

Got honked at once by a van, so I moved further into the lane, then left him about 2 miles behind me in stuck traffic. Later, a guy yells at me, "Get outta the way freak" while turning right in a lane he had all to himself.. yeah, i wasn't even in his way... makes no sense to me either.. then later still, a guy on a mountain bike behind me growls really loud, Chewbacca style.. makshift horn? dunno.. he might've been growling at the car that was cutting us both off, but later he passed me aggressively, so *shrug*..

All in all, a weird ride compared to usual, but I made it to work alive so it wasn't too bad.
