... to prove i'm faster than you. Thats basically what i got from a motorist today.

He pulled out in front of me, on the phone, didn't look to me like he even considered my speed, so a blast of the horn to make him aware and a jab on the brakes to slow down.
I was going to pass and just mutter that cyclists go faster than he thinks, and move on, as he was on the phone and i didn't want to disturb his conversation. But it seems the driver wanted a chat, and thinks that because he perceives that he can go faster than me, he has the right to pull out in front of me. He gives me an invite to race him to the bridge, 100yards away. Needless to say he gets stuck in traffic and i win without trying.
1 for the cyclist, 0 for the car driver
