I get stares all the time, but I never get anyone yelling at me. Usually I don't ride next to anyone though, I speed up to get away from them. Besides I think my middle finger at every car that gets withing 5ft of me is a big turn off.

Yeah I get the WHOA and points at the bike... but no flashing... it must be a Michigan thing... everybody is too stressed out due to the economy, the housing market, and being under the dumb hoe Jenny!! No mentality for flashing or other cool.

I have been guilty of the stare down as well, typically when they get too close to me. I just turn around and sit while they get all uncomfortable. Even more effective when actually moving. Not that I recommend this, but when on a familiar road and being tailgated, I will do it. |

And the stare down is funny as hell. Especially when they start squirming visibily or pointedly look at their passenger while their passenger looks at you |
