four wheel frusteration

k, so, i usually dont get pissed and rant on here about people of the motorcar persuation, but today i reached an epiphany.  The epiphany is this:  The worst part about my commute to riverside cyclery, is the asshats that drive next to me.

i say next to me, but sometimes i think the goal is to go over me.  Freaking people.  Today i was nigh more than a mile from my house, and i STOPPED (as in came to a full stop) at a stop sign.  Now to my right, there was a large van, so i can understand that the woman in the red car i am going to speak of didnt see me.  After the large van cleared the intersection, i began my forward progress, i think the woman in the red car was just completing her stop.  She was turning right from the same lane as the big van.  So, i, not going at a blazing speed, was taking advantage of my right of way, until the woman, not looking at me, pulled out in front of me, and i steered quickly behind her.  At this point in the story, im still not mad.  Then when i sit in behind her so she could maybe recognize that she nearly killed me, she does the old "crazy ivan" and slams her breaks.  It was at this point, while i was stearing around her i saw this sticker.

It was at this point, i felt i had to point out the hypocrisy of a christianity sticker on  a car who was driven by a woman who just TRIED TO COMMIT MURDER.  Because she had to stop to let her CHILD out at the ELEMETARY school (great values being passed down here in case you aren't noting the sarcasm) i was able to catch up to her and shout thru her window "I like your christian sticker..... its really COOOOL!!!!"  She honked and got madder.  WWJD?  Clearly not what master J would have done.  

Then on the way home, on a section where the bike path is totally effed, i was taking up MAYBE half a foot of the regular traffic lane.  MAYBE.  A couple of total elephants in their beat up chrysler honked and flipped me off, even though i did NOT impede their trip, and they did not slow down  a single MPH from the flow of traffic. I guess they were pissed that i have such sweet legs.  

the road from riverside to redlands is wrought with chotches.
