I don't know if it was the fact that I am female or if it was my CBR vs gixxers. And sand?!?! Jeez, some of my guy friends carry a rock in their pocket and I've seen them toss them out as they are passing a car that has cut them off. That is crazy! I just want to ride, be left alone, and enjoy the thrill of being on two wheels. There is enough road for everyone.

Thats a good reason to carry a concealed weapon, I would consider that an act of attempted manslaughter considering the riding conditions, in the court of law, it would be a good case, because you being the victim had a right to defend yourself, hence them being shot.

Hummm, gotta be a better way to discourage jerks without having to resort to violence. I know next time though that I am going to get their tags or try to take a pic. It was only for 2 maybe 3 miles but it was long enough to scare me. That is just stupid riding anyways. Anyone else ever get into something like this while riding alone?

Did you happened to get either plate number? I could be wrong but I pretty sure what they did could be considered criminal misconduct, even aggravated assault. I can't believe that someone would do that the a guy or a girl....very good example of squids, out to play and do whatever they want with out regard for consequences to others. I'd find a few friends to ride through that same area with out a doubt, you are bound to cross paths with these guys again. Morons, damn, you got me all heated, now I want to kick their a$$es....

Sorry to hear about this, where you located? Maybe some members in your area would up for an ol' fashioned *** whooping. Just run through with them and if those squids come flying through again then run them down and see how they like being harrassed.

I'm down, we live kind of near each other, we can go hunt for them and then neutralize them. Enemy down!

Wow, It sure is nice to know that there are cool people out there on bikes that look out for each other. I live in Southern Cali just outside of LA so if anyone wants to meet up, drop me a note. DDVS, say when!

Wow sounds like a bunch of BS to me. Glad to hear you made it out alright. Bad enough when cars are out to mess with you but when a fellow biker does it....that is just f@#ked up. I had some jackass the other day on a new CBR600 pass me in my lane on the right side when I was begining to move over to exit the highway and almost clipped me. I was so mad......after about 30,000 miles on different bikes throughout my life the closest I have coming to colliding with another vehicle was another bike.

You did all you could, and did it right. Stopping might have been the worst thing you could do. Sad to think we might have to watch out for jerks on bikes, but I guess some jerks ride also. Glad you made it out safely. Hope I never find myself in that situation.

There are way too many sociopaths lurking among us and, unfortunately some of them are motorcyclists. Sounds like you did the right things to avoid an even nastier situation. "Revenge" is a waste of time and energy with creeps like this.
