Back off
I know at times I ride like I own the road...but...while in the cage Saturday afternoon about 3:30pm on Central Expressway headed to downtown Dallas (point is it was crazy traffic on a crazy road) an azzhatt on a good looking bagger decided it would be fun to ride about 5' off my *** at 70-75mph. I was in the F150 and lightly tapped the breaks (just to show the lights) to let him know to ease off a bit and of course he didn't. No break checking..just letting him know I knew he was there but there was no place for me to go....
Yea I was in the left lane in quite a bit of traffic all moving at or above the posted speed limit, I was trapped behind 3 or 4 other cages and couldn't get by them, or I would have.
Point is...back the "f" off..if I'd had to make a quick reduction in speed he would have been toast...
I'm an "aggressive-defensive" rider, so I get it...but I really didn't want a bagger up my ***... These idiots give us all a bad name...

He will be thinking differently if he has to rehab 12 weeks before and after back surgery....And all I did was pick a bike up. NOT run into the back of a truck.
Darwin will take care of that "biker"

Man, most "baggers" I know are the more experienced riders.
Could be he saw the Harley Davidson sticker on the back of your truck and was feeling a little safer tucked in behind ya?

No sticker on the cage...at some point I suspect so.
It was a family afternoon/birthday outing. Last thing I want is to get delayed on my outing due to some azzhat. Plus blood stains on a white F150 are tough to get off!

I was passing....duh...
In Big D, most folks don't have a clue what a passing lane is. I was the fastest moving vehicle, I was being held up by cages ahead of me but passing cages on our right.
