I finally looked back to see what was going on and he pulled up next to me and this creepy man driving the car just stared at me. That's all he did was stare at me as I rode. I tried slowing down to let him pass, but every time he'd stop at a light I'd catch up to him. Eventually the traffic made him speed up and pass me for good.
But as a single woman who rides by herself all the time, and this being the second incident in three days where something like this has happened it really starts to make me worry.
Does anyone else deal with stuff like this? I know a few of you have had to deal with jerks while riding and having stuff thrown at you. But how do you deal with stuff like this?
