Comming home from the girlfriends the other night.
Im on the interstate minding my own business in my own lane running 55.
Guy passes me in a PT Cruiser
Off ramp to hit Rt 20 and my house on the right.The PT turns onto my off ramp and slows way down to like 20 MPH and stays that way onto Rt 20.Im thinking the guy actually goes down to like 15 MPH.heading west on Rt 20.Speed limit on Rt20 is 40 MPH..Ok no biggie.I pull in the left lane and just pass him and then pull back into the center lane.i'd say I went up to 45 to get around the guy.and then back to the speed limit.No problem. next thing I know the dipchit is RIGHT ON MY AZZ.doing 40 MPH.What I thought was a guy who might have been looking around and perhaps not know where he was and was just looking at road signs is a total azz hole.
Sticks on my butt for say half a mile and then passes me on the left going 60 in a 40 zone.
I was so pizzed I stopped at a gas station got off the bike and walked around alittle.That dipshit had me so pizzed I cant believe it.I have read about bikers having this happen.Just never figured it would happen to me.!0 years ago I would have followed the azzwipe to where he was going and beat the chit out of him.Im 6'6" 270.Older nowUsually dont go lookingfor trouble but man oh man I wanted to kill the dipchit.

I had the same thing happen last weekend, I was coming home from Oceanside, getting on the 5 from the 78, and I pass an AMBULANCE, The big box/van type with duallies, the interchange ramp is on a hill, so he's pulling it rather slow and I just kept at my speed, passed him and got on the 5 when this guy races up behind me, and decides he's going to pass me, on the RIGHT, then procedes to cut me off[:@]. I think what pissed me off the most was that they were Marines from Camp Pendleton.
Nuts work better, remember things fall of Harley's all the time, they're nothing but junk and who knows what will fall off them next? That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
