Training: EF-DancersHill-MaysLane-EF

Easy recovery ride on first day of holiday (well, 3rd if you count the weekend!). Encountered an irate SUV driver today - basically a swearing battle took place between us, ebding with him actually trying to swerve into me. I finally got to him when I told him he had a small prick - giving him the little bent finger sign. He accelerated in front of me and blocked me off against the pavement and got out the car. Not wanting to fight, I sprinted around him and the car and down a side street. I could feel the wind of his meaty hand as he tried grabbing me - pretty scary. The side street came to a dead end and I was basically trapped if he followed me down there...but he didn't. Damn the bastard for making my HR go too high - this was supposed to be a recovery ride...

Distance: 38km
Time: ?
Speed: about 25kph

Always a sketchy thing to do, from my experience. We have our share of SUV w*nkers around here too. These days I mainly just chill when faced with agression like this, they're just not worth it.
