Not sure about the road rage. Guy just thought a cyclist can be pushed all around. I've seen many taxi guys bully me out even when I go on my ford anywhere. They will honk incessantly when I patiently wait for red signal to turn green. Once an auto rickshaw guy started banging the boot of my car with his hand to move out of his way on a traffic light (when it was still red). Hardly 10% bikers stop at red lights.
And what's teh old pepsi advt? I don't have tv connection at home. I have world space radio (24 hours of music), a home theater system, a big tv and over 800 dvds! Quote:

Thanks for your support sir. somehow I feel that we are going back to being barbarians. I stopped on one of the US interstates because I noticed a pair of gopher tortoises crossing. I also managed to stop the Interstate traffic completely for the next 25 mins and all people got down and cheered the tortoises that were taking time to amble across the highway. People were taking photos as well! No one complained. In pune, I stop at red signal, I get abused by people behind me, who's path I block.
