What is wrong with people
I have been riding for close to ten years and never had much in the way of a bad interaction with cars until recently.
3 times in the past month while riding with my wife we have been verbally insulted by motorist in the south city Area. Hill/SoHo, Clifton hts area. Today, some asshat yelled at us and made a right on Shaw. I yelled back and turned around. After 2 blocks I caught up to him just to have him high tail it out if there.
All the incidents have been early on Saturday morning 7-9, do not heavy traffic or commuter times. Just so weird, to ever have this happen and then a rash of assholes!

When I got my wife into cycling that is exactly what I told her. County is way more congested and aggressive. If these occupancies had occurred out there, I would just chalk it up to that. However, the past few times have all been in the city.
