Seconding the notion that not all bikers are *******s..........unfortunately, the bad ones are the ones people remember.

You've all got good cars - you can handle going around bikes -- even the few dicks out there -- quickly and safely. Yelling and a good loud lean on the horn is appropriate. For those three-abreast riders -- pull out in front then drive really slowly in front of them... but I think buzzing someone or running them off the road goes over the line to assault and reckless endangerment.

I've had runner friends who run on the side of the road and have had cans thrown at them, buzzed, etc. Why? I just can't understand that.
