Short Ride Last Night
 
I went out for a short, yeah right 3.5 hrs short, ride last night. Hit up some twisties on the west side Indy. Still a little nervous coming into the corner faster than posted. On my way home on 70 I almost got ran over by a Accord.

I was right next to the old geeser and see did not see me. I had on my MilSpec vest, my bike is bright funking yellow and I was in the higher RPM's so I KNOW he heard my exhaust. I do not recommend doing what I did by any means. I was upset and not thinking clearly. I tail gated him for a few. Once I was able to get next to him, I got his attention and was gesturing like 'How the hell can you not see me?!?!', gave him the bird and took off.

I had a good time except for that last part. Damn cagers!

If I had a buck for every instance a very young or quite elderly driver never saw me
I'd be in early retirement by now ......... feel your frustration man..... but these
scenario's can be fairly predictable especially when you see two hands high on a
steering wheel with the drivers head roughly in line with them :) .... be(a)ware stay
safe

Alright. If 1 more person tries to run me over, I am going to go funking postal on them. Bright yellow bike, loud exhaust should equal seen and heard. Next time I will follow them to their destination and give them a piece of my mind. Damn cagers!
