Ran Interference

I was coming back from up north today in my Blazer
Left lane was a couple bikes, myself in the right
Behind the bikes was a van that was drifting around the lane , speeding up and slowing down for no reason
I automatically squeezed my Blazer in front of the van and held a constant speed as the road narrowed to one lane
The bikes slowly pulled away until they were completely out of sight

As a rider myself I am pretty sure the riders were completely unaware of what could have been a drunk driver behind them

I don't ride anymore but I certainly appreciate folks that actually pay attention to motorcycles

. I brok my leg in a motorcycle accident 10 yrs ago cause a driver wasn't paying attention and cut me off on a sharp corner with a stoplight. It was either run into him when he switched lanes without looking and slammed on his brakes for the yellow light or lay it down so I layed it down and broke my leg in the process

. I try and watch out for other drivers around bikes and block as much as possible. So I will give you a personal thank you.
