The subject say it all.

Friday night about 7PM
On our way downtown for dinner
Richmond Rd and Sherman waiting to cross
Dark green Honda Accord looking car with three or four male whites
Trash tossed out the window buy the ass in the passanger side back seat
Something hits me, sprays all over Jill
FUCK YOU I scream as Jill flies the bird
A full on Lance Armstrong inspired sprint down Richmond Rd as the mother fuckers attempt a left onto Sycamore
I catch up to them but I can't cut across two lanes of traffic, can't make out plate number
By the time we get across Richmond Rd they are long gone
Call the law, cruise the backstreets and parking lots of Chevy Chase, go eat

So to recap I hate idiots that throw shit out of cars at people. I hope I gave the motherfuckers a rush (more like a good laugh) busting ass down Richmond Rd beard and hair flying in the wind. I really hope Karma comes back around.

it did...cyclists ruin the road. you got yours...

seriously...glad no one was hurt...you or them.

I love the sprint to the car of assholes. Got hit by an Ale8 bottle a few years ago, the light turned on them as I was rolling up the hill maybe 20 yards away so they hauled ass. I wanted to catch that car more than anything in the world.


I hate them too.

it gets tiring having to apologize for people you don't even know- obviously bravery in numbers- hurry sundown, hurry karma

Sling shot with large ball bearings. It's really easy for the police to find a car with a broken out window.

Jill is now thinking about carrying an ice ax in her bike's basket. That or a .45

bullshit Ale8 has never hurt anybody. so shut your whore mouth when talking about the nectar of the gods.

Pigsteak, don't you have a green honda accord?

you'd be amazed what a U-lock can do. but the best advice is to get the plate numbers .
If you aren't familiar with it already www.lexrides.com has a good forum section, sure people would be interested about this there.

never been hit with anything being thrown out a car window but have been cursed and ran off the road enough times to know the feeling. Your blood pressure rises, you get so pissed you feel like you could flip the car over.
I really wish you had caught up to 'em, in my experience the assholes are a lot less brave when they are stuck at a stoplight and you're right next to their window peering in at them. I had a similar situation a year ago, riding down nicholasville, 3 jerks in an SUV curse me and my friend for riding on the road and get stuck at the light at Maxwell st. We catch up and I go on the driver side door, my friend goes to the passenger side, I tap on the drivers side window (which he had rolled up-had it all the way down when he was yelling at us) and ask if he has a problem..he sheepishly says, 'no' and we spare him.
With that said, I've felt a bit safer riding in Lexington and haven't had a bad experience in quite a while (I've also moved off Nicholasville which has helped)

I was on Southland the other day and a guy drove be a spit at me. What the fuck is wrong with people. Where do you come up with the idea to spit on another human being? There was also the group of kids who started throwing rocks at me while I was waiting for a light to turn green and then the countless number of people who like to throw pennies. pricks.
