    #1 Thing that pisses you off

    while riding/driving.-- maybe 2 things

    1. All lanes on the highway going the same damn speed.
    2. A few slow cars on the back roads that will not pull over.

    I don't let anything piss me off while riding. Getting pissed off makes me do stupid things.

    I am irritated by people who flick their butts out their windows. Partly because I've been hit before (nothing like a sudden explosion of sparks exploding off of your face shield in the dark ) but also because they start wildfires.

    I hate when you have your turn signal on or your hand gesture to get over and the person next to you speeds up and wont let you over than when you speed in front of them they ride your ass!!!

    Re: #1 Thing that pisses you off

    When I'm riding into an intersection and there's an on coming vehicle in the left turn lane, and that driver doesn't come to a complete stop,,,or does a complete stop then starts rolling again. It always gets me hammering the brakes because it makes me think they don't see me coming. Bastards. Had that happen twice today.

    Re: #1 Thing that pisses you off

    hate to say it but all other drivers.... especially slow drivers in the left lane or people that just drive there and not get over. I want to put a sticker on the driver side of the topper on my truck that says: if you can read this and I am passing you, your in the wrong lane asshole

    oh dont worry it will fit I have an 8' bed on my pick up

    Absolutely, hands down, people who merge onto the interstate @ 45 mph. That shit is just not safe and really grinds my gears.

    Re: #1 Thing that pisses you off

    drivers that maintain one speed.....like 45.....then we hit a 55mph zone i have to pass....then we get back into town and it drops to 35 and they are riding my ass because apparently their car is stuck at 45.

    People that cant turn from one street to another and stay into there closest lane...I mean i see semi-trucks do it...why do you need to cross over? <----watched a motorcycle wreck one time because he turned and so did a car...the car maintained its lane but the bike freaked because it couldnt and wrecked.....

    Also people that turn like a semi and have to swing there car left a little to turn right....wtf?

    Yeah that is huge. Or when people come to a complete stop to wait for an open spot.

    This is something I really noticed when I moved back to Colorado. Never noticed it in KC. But I see it happen here a lot!!! It simple, speed up or slow down to insert yourself safely into traffic.

    I dont like it when people tail me as bikes tend to engine brake a lot harder than cars. So if I have one tailing me I will keep my foot lightly on the rear brake so they can see im slowing.

    Yep I have a nice dent in my front bumper because of a girl talking on her phone who decided she wanted to stop at the end of an onramp, good thing too because there was nobody there

    I was in for 7 from '75 in The Marines to getting out in 82 in The Army (I was 5 lbs overweight and denied reenlistment). I didn't spend as much time in the field as you did, certainly. When I was in Germany, we'd be in the field for 6 weeks at a time. I think the smell just brings back good memories of being in the field.
