I feel ya!

I was out riding this weekend on some backroads. I was doing about 45-50ish with NO ONE around. All of a sudden I look in the mirror and I see this Mini-Van coming up on me hard (I'm on a 2 lane road with a double yellow mind you with a soft shoulder). The speed limit is 45 so I figure that this guy wants to go a bit faster. So I bring it up to 55ish and take another gander in the mirror and the guy was so close to my back fender that I could have counted the bugs on his hood. So we come to a State Hwy junction and that peels off to the right with a stop sign. He's still right on my a$$. The speed limit on the new road is 65. So I gun it away from the stop sign to create some distance thinking that this guy may just back off. NOPE! There he is...right on my fender again. So I peel off (at 65 mph) on to the now hard shoulder and wave this guy by. He just blows by me at like 75 mph just to ride the next guys a$$ about 20 yards in front of me.

What a jagov.
