I've see much more of this first hand when I've been riding with a female rider. I think it's harder for the harasser to distinguish that you're travelling together than when on foot. It makes me incredibly angry and they tend to back down pretty quickly when they realise that you are travelling together. Further evidence of what a cowardly, shameful act this type of abuse is. It's also evident that men who act in this way consider that it's ok if the female in question is not the "property" of another man.
