Had a nice one today. Riding down Ben Johnson road on the way to Mile End. Peak rush hour and back to back traffic so I'm riding down the middle of the road (overtaking position). A car in front of me indicates right and moves towards the centre of the road. I let her go and move to the inside lane only to be greeted by a spring-loaded door swinging wide open. After narrowly missing it, I stopped, berated the driver loudly, then realised it wasn't even worth it. Perhaps if I'd been catapulted over the door she might think to look next time but I'm doubtful...
