I way overdressed for this ride...I was roasting. I thought it was going to rain.
On my way in to work I was going north on Shady Oak Rd on my way to Minnetonka Blvd and as I was going down a hill there was a mail truck parked on the road. The lady moving up beside me slowed down to let me go...I waved my appreciation and she kind;y waved back in acknowledgement. I felt really great about that. 15 seconds later as I rode over the next hill and down the other side a truck with a small trailer stopped at the stop sign. The gray haired clean cut guy behind the wheel reached out of his winder and FLIPPED ME OFF. I totally and intentionally failed to react, because that is what he wanted me to do. He is obviously a coward and knows that as he has to do is push down on his pedal and I cannot catch him. He is obviously a dickhead and a bully and I am not going to give him the rise that he was looking for with his gesture.
Within 20 seconds I saw both sides of the coin and was a microcosm of the up and downs of respect and commuting to and from work.
