There was someone filling up right behind the Porsche that looked shocked, and he just said, "he cut me off!" and walked back to his bike and rode off. We all make mistakes as drivers, but when you intentionally try to hurt someone who can't defend themselves as well as you, well... paybacks a *****!

Oh my gosh! Now the guy in the Porsche will hate every one of us because one cyclist lost his temper. Not cool. I think I would've gone in the gas station and confronted him instead.
I followed someone into a parking lot before and confronted them. I was 80 miles into a century (I'm always so charming at that point of the ride) and this guy squeeze played between me and on-coming traffic on a curve ONLY to drive 50 feet and turn into Dollar General. I was furious. I didn't throw a rock through his windshield but I did pull in behind him and was standing next to his vehicle when he got out. I confronted him and he was quite apologetic and embarrassed actually. His young son was in the vehicle at the time. They act differently when they are looking the cyclist in the eye.
