Near miss

Along one steep climb I was walking up the right side hugging the edge with my bike on the inside. Most people took a wide berth going by me but for the more cautious looking ones I’d stop and make it look like I was making the effort to get off the road. One guy drove towards me fairly slow right along the yellow line then just budged a tiny bit going by me while I sucked my chest in. He continued down the hill with his left wheels over the yellow lines and then came within inches of rubbing off the parked cars further down. It’s true what they say, old people are slow and dangerous behind the wheel.
