Stupid son of a B

[so called]

I started the thread below a few weeks ago and the various incidents that had occurred had seemed funny but todays has realy pd me off. I am in Germany and some twonk has just pushed me into the kirb while trying to take a photo.
Ripped my front tyre and damaged the rim on my, previously perfect SP12 alloy.
Now waiting for the ADAC and will have to source a new tyre tommorrow.

I can understand why you'd furious at that, but how did he manage it?

[so called]

He just drifted towards me while trying to take a photo.
I just ran out of room. I braked to try and drop behind him but still hit the kirb. Its my own fault that I hit the krb but it was that or let him hit the side of my car.

I had a similar experience about 4 years ago in my Chimaera but slammed my brakes on and dropped back.

Reminds me of an experience years ago.

I had an old Moggy thou which was due to be scrapped the following day.

Some road rage tt cut in on me and tried to push me into the weeds.

I never thought to hold my position and let him bounce off...dammit.

It must be instinct to try to avoid contact.

I've got Goodyear Eagle F1's on so I guess I will need to buy two of the new asymetric and change both fronts as per that recent thread.

Wonder if I can find one symetric in Germany ?
And I guess I should get my geometry checked as well.

Dear Wife, please send me some more money.
