I used to race road bikes when I was younger in Iowa and can’t tell you many times I’ve had beer bottles thrown at me. A few times drivers would get in front of us and slam their brakes. Once a guy had the nerve to stop and the group started kicking his car.
Six or so years ago here in town I was riding up 81 and some redneck with a big pickup and one of those huge air horns snuck up on me and blasted it. Just about knocked me off the road. He got the finger but I wish I could have gotten his plate.
Real problems now are cell phones and distracted drivers.
