Do you get angry when drivers stare at you???

My cousin and I were cruising down to DC from NYC driving along a Maryland thruway. I noticed a pack of about 6 Harleys taking up the right lane with a girl in a GSX-R1000 tailing about 5 car lengths behind them. I was in the passenger seat as my cousin cruised along the middle lane, as we passed the girl in the Suzuki I stared at her and admired her bike, so we pass her, then we pass the pack of hogs. Two seconds later you hear a loud roar, so I look in the side view mirror and see the girl cut off the pack of hogs as she pulls up to the side of my cousin's car. She slows down a bit to the speed of our car, turns towards me and looks at me as if to say, "Take a close look cuz I'll be gone in .02 seconds", she then looked away and let her sucker fly!!! Our car was running 75mph and she was about 1 mile away in less than 5 seconds. Do you guys do that when riding?

No. And I get alot of looks because my bike is just unusual looking (like me
).

So what you are saying is that you didn't get her phone number?

I ride a Rebel 250. It would take too much effort to get angry at everyone that looks at me funny.

I don't think she was mad, she just wanted to show off her squid skills. But don't worry, she's probably about ready to crash it anyways.

she probably thought that you didn't take notice of her as much as you
should
I get stares when I'm riding slow......I don't get angry or bothered bout it...In fact I even tend to ride slower more often

Depends. If its one of those big eyed "I'm pulling out in front of you hope you don't run into me and scratch my car" stares, then yes I get extremely pissed. If it's just someone looking at me because they feel like it, only a psycho would have a problem with that. The only times I really gun it in traffic is for safety reasons.

People stare at me because I wear an awesome pimp helmet mohawk.

no, I usually get surprised that they've actually seen me
