Just as the light turns green, flip 'em off, then jack the throttle and jack rabbit outta the hole. When they begin to close in on you, do the NASCAR "break the draft" maneuver to block them. And what ever else you do, DO NOT stop at the next red light, and you should be just fine. But remember, fine is a 4 letter word. That is just my advice,\. Never actually tried it, maybe that's why I made it to 55.

Those "harkey" riders can be some real a-holes. Best to look straight ahead, then ride like hell to get away from them. If they were on Harleys, it is a different story. We are all pretty cool guys...about 99% of us anyway.

I don't do anything because I have on my chaps, fingerless gloves, arm chaps, cool beanie helmet with stickers and I have given them the correct wave. They don't dare mess with me.

Why is this a concern? If it were 4 "fast & furious" ghetto wannabes on crotch rockets with colored leathers and Darth Vader helmets, would you be concerned as well?

in the U.S. say "Nice weather huh?"

in Canada "Nice weather ay?"
The preferred spelling, according to Webster's is: EH

Nothing...

If I'm in my truck and another truck pulls up behind me, I don't do anything either...

The proper thing to do is to flip them the bird.If they happen to be 1%er,it's customary to use two hands to flip the bird.Then pull a hole shot & spray asphalt on their scoots.
Thanks. I needed a good laugh today. I can imagine the outcome. [sm=shootshoot.gif][sm=shootshoot.gif][sm=shootshoot.gif][sm=shootshoot.gif]
