I'd like to add a point that Sam brought up yesterday (as we were all
discussing right after the incident happened): that even though nothing
terrible happened, it's worth phoning in because it establishes a record of
dangerous/aggressive driving for the person in question, which was an
important part of recent the case against the abusive driver in Santa
Monica. I'm glad to hear they were receptive! I wasn't expecting that.
Thanks for phoning that in, Sam. I was going to do that today actually, but
I'm glad you did ;)

Hey all,
Our evening hills ride had an incident last night involving a black
chevy Tahoe which buzzed us coming down highway 84 going at roughly
40+ on a blind corner. He apparently he felt the need to prove that
he could go faster then bikes.
Black Chevy Tahoe - Licence 6JDT939. I called it into the sheriff
department this morning.
Anyway, be safe out there and if you see things i really think we
should start being more proactive at reporting people given the recent
news out of LA.
Sam
