Default Interesting ride to work today!

On my way to work today, I get on the expressway, get into 6th gear, settle in at about 75mph. I soon pass a guy on a Electra Glide Classic. Next thing I know this guy goes ripping past me shaking his head, like "how dare you pass by me". A few miles down the road hit some traffic, and I go past him again (now keep in mind all this time I've been holding steady at 75mph). I see him in my rearview right on my tail, I was in the left side of the leftmost lane. He goes ripping past me again, this time while still in my lane!!

I feel sorry for this guys wife, because he certainly seems to be overcompensating for something!

I mean who is he kidding giving me that attitude! I'm not going to risk getting a ticket just to show this poser that I could smoke him if I wanted too, I mean it's a Dyna v.s. a Touring bike.

What gives!!

He wishes he would have spent his money more wisely, and bought a Dyna

Sounds like a tad of insecurity on his part!

Yeah, Just like driving on the freeway in my pickup using the cruise control and playing leap frog with some jacka$$ who can't figure out why I keep speeding up then slowing down!

Yeah, I know what you mean. Who exactly was he proving anything to? Yeah, so you're driving faster, big whoopee!!! It's a 88ci 5 speed against a 96ci 6 speed, and probably pushing 200 lbs difference in weight ( including rider) I fail to see what he acomplished except looking foolish.

I'm voting for the little winkie complex!

Probably sitting on his brains and they were getting hot from the engine. I get a laugh at guys like than when I am in the truck on the freeway. I set my cruise at 70-75 or whatevere 5 over is. They pass then slow down, I pass and they speed up. Played tag with a guy yesterday on I-5. The ones that get me are the guys who are driving at the speed limit or just a little under until they come to a passing lane. They pull over in the right lane then speed up. Another one is 18 wheelers who are going 1-2 mph faster than the truck in front and they think they need to pass.

Stupidity Should Hurt.
