The cultural aspect of this is interesting. I remember riding in Ireland and how careful the cars were around cyclists. We got razzed by German cyclists for our helmets and mirrors, items we need in the States because we will get driven off the road or hit with a beer bottle or slapped in the back of the head.
I'm not a bike rider, so I have no dog in this fight, but a neighbor told me something he used to do as a teen that gets me giggling every time I imagine the scene.

Seems, whenever he and his older brother were driving around and they'd approach a pedestrian or biker headed the same direction, he'd lean out the passenger window and yell "BANG!" right next to them, as loud as he could.

Couple of guys fell off their bikes, he says.

Ok, ok. If it happened to me, I'd be pissed as hell, but come on. That's FUNNY.
