Overtake and your a kn0bhead
Driving home this afternoon after finishing work for the Christmas break. I was traveling my usual route, ie back roads, when I get stuck behind a Taxi doing 45mph. Knowing there is a long straight looming, I sit back and wait. We enter the straight, I check to see if any oncoming cars are approaching, no, just a cyclist way into the distance, so I overtake quickly and safely, only to be greeted by the cyclist giving the Kn0bhead gestures towards me 
Why? What the fu*k did I do so wrong? I overtook a slow moving car on a straight road, and was no where near the cyclist. ******* w@nker
I can really understand why people in America get shot for things like this. It's really made my blood boil. If you have the guts to overtake a slow moving vehicle then you are maniac on the road destined to kill every other road user.
Sorry for the rant, just needed to get that off my chest.

I found(although not with a cyclist),that a half drunk McDonalds Vanilla Milkshake with a loose lid works wonders when someone gets mouthy in traffic and has their window down

get this all the time. it seems you are either an idiot or a showoff if you manage to overtake any cars these days, unless you indicate 1 mile before overtaking, pass safely, wave to the other car for allowing you the manoevre and then pull in back again at least 500 yards ahead of them. 
sod em !!
