i mountain bike a lot, and have to ride on the side of some main roads to get to trails near me. i get WAAAY off on the shoulder, just to be safe. one day a big truck swerved at me, and i was off on the shoulder. he did it purposely. it's people like that who make me 2nd guess whether i should get a motorcycle or not.

That has happend to me a few times. A truck past me and he came awfuly close and I was well off to the side. I didn't think much of it and passed him again at the lights. Once past the lights I moved way out onto the shoulder (not part of the road). The stupid truck driver followed me and once again passed stupidly close to me even though I was probably a metre and a half off the road.
