Now that the weather’s warming up I’ve got new tires on my bike and I’ve been riding to work. For the most part the automobile drivers I share the road with are respectful and cautious. But last night my husband Brandon was harassed by a pair of rednecks in a pickup truck. They first drove up alongside him and tried to startle him in to crashing. When that didn’t work, they followed him, getting menacingly close, shouting epithets. When Brandon turned a corner and disappeared behind a big tree, the guys got out of their truck to look for him.
I suspect these are the same douchebags that pulled the same crap with me late last summer.
Does anybody out there have any advice for dealing with vehicular bullies? I’m seriously considering going Q on my bike and adding some James Bond style sideways rocket launchers and exploding thumb-tack bombs to my bike.
