@aaronpk I used to yell back, now I just wave.

@aaronpk I've found trying to educate ignorant aholes on Oregon road laws to be a waste of time. Just gets the blood pressure up.
Replying to @aaronpk
@aaronpk Help them get around you so they're not enraged. Safer for everyone. (This happens in Portland!?)
Replying to @aaronpk
@aaronpk I usually just take the 'ride as fast as possible through this stretch' approach.
Replying to @aaronpk
@aaronpk politely tell them it's legal at your discretion & you took the lane for safety. /c @BikePortland
