RE: Who Rides with ammo??
I agree with this guy.
But then "I might be a red neck" cus I usually have adip of tobacco in my mouth. You can look like you are being careful and spit straight down, but you know what the wind does with it behind a wind shield. They usually back off.

Try this little trick, just put your left blinker on. Works most of the time. You can also use your hand and give the slow down/back off signal. Whatever you do, DON'T BRAKE! The left turn signal trick will make most tailgaters back off a little and then you can move out of their way. If nothing else, it will aggravate the crap out of them. But wait, cell phone, ipod, music that goes thump-thump, and all the other distractions and you get lost in the clutter. Dial 911 and tell them you've just been hit by an aggressive driver and give them their license number.
Most of this occurs on freeways where everyone is jockeying for position. Just ride safe.

I've done this with my truck...when someone tailgates me...I'll drift off onto the shoulder a bit...the MT Baja Claws throw up a lot of gravel...lol. Though I did get stopped and made to do a sobriety test when the guy tailgating me turned out to be a cop!
I knew a guy who kept some caltrops made of welded nails...can't follow you with a blown tire! Grin!
Personally when someone follows too close when I'm on the bike...I just speed up a bit!

All I do is slow down when being tailgated. I get slower and slower and ride the yellow. Pisses them off every time. Nothing like doing 35 in a 50 to **** a guy off. Can't go to slow or you run the risk of someone flying up on the guy behind you and making your day sh**ty. Although I have done a single small rock dropped right down beside you and the sucker will bounce up and get 'em. Just like following a gravel truck.

Just wondering how many guys on this forum ride with a pocket full of ball bearings, for those times when your sixth sense is telling you that someone is riding your ***... Only to be confirmed by a quick glance in your mirror. Or when you've got some idiot who switches lanes behind you only to miss your rear tire by a foot and a half? Ball bearings or pennies works pretty well at 70mph.
