I was at the end of my lunch ride on the only part of the ride where I have ride the road in the bike lane. I am only on it for 2-3 minutes at the most thankfully. Mid way up the climb I have to do in the bike lane, some Camaro full of teenage boys swerve at me in the bike lane and yell "faggot!".
Having been hit by 3 cars in the last couple years, this did not sit well with me. So I mashed up the rest of the hill and caught up with the car full of teens. Their windows were now rolled up and they seemed pretty scared and shocked that I caught up with them so quickly. I then politely punched their window a few times asking them who did they call a faggot? They looked afraid and then traffic started to move. I then let them know to not do that to innocent cyclists on the road and ended the conversation with some spit on their window.
When I got back to the office, I called 911 and reported them to the CHP and local police. They are looking for the car now.
Kids these days...
