Default Close Call Already!!

Well I am new to this forum and relatively new to riding. Today I was out riding my bike and some guy in an Escalade decides that he is going to try to pass me. This would be fine except there is a car coming. He decides that instead of slowing down he will just push me over. I decided that the best option that was avialable to me was to grab a handful and get up around him. Do you think this was the right move. The reason I didnt get on the breaks was because there was a car now riding my A$$. I a cop saw the whole thing happen and did not do a thing about it. Thanks for all the info on here. Dont know what I would do without it.

Thanks Man he got his a$$ chewed thats for sure. I almost got off my bike and kicked his a$$. Good thing is I know where he lives and his oil plug just might come loose. What can I say. Stuff like that happens, kinda like running someone off the road.

That sh*t does suck, but first lesson in the MSF course, you can't have road rage.
Cause YOU WILL LOSE. It sounds mean to say get over it, but that's what you gotta do man. Having that **** on your mind willing riding will make you naturally a bad rider. You can't be thinking about your girlfriend or the stupid driver back there. You gotta focus on what's going to happen next. You need to be fully aware of your surroundings.

I agree you need to watch out around yourself and try to anticipate what the cages around you might do and be ready or position your self for that.

Also if you wear a sturdy glove you can always smash there f%@king mirror as you ride buy, if your going around on the left side just raise your rt leg and bam.
