Yesterday, I was about 25 feet away from a very long red light, when some guido-kid gives me the horn and then swerves into my lane (which I was at the edge).
He is blasting some "Club" music out his windows, so I roll past him, and inspired by yesterday's White People Can't Dance thread (the driver looked like the guy in the video), I give him the "Raise the Roof" dance. He turns down the music and begins to threaten me from his car. One thing he yelled was "What you are going to do about it?", and while I was still showing my dance moves, I said "I am doing it right now".
As the light turns green, I push off into the crosswalk for protection, and he drives to the next block and pulls over to wait for me. He yells some more threats as I passed by, and this time I just laughed at him.
Of course, I kept checking backwards next mile just in case. During this whole incident, I never got off my bike, touched his car, or made any move towards him.
Writing this down, it seems pretty obvious to me I should have just hung back, and let this jerk-off do his thing. Was it stupid to mock this guy?
