I was cycling on Millhopper Rd yesterday, mid-afternoon, by myself in the bike lane, when a small, 4-dr, newer-model, cherry red pickup truck slowed down and drove along beside me. A male passenger leaned way out the window and shouted somthing that sounded like (not sure): "Dog behind you" or "I'm behind you." My response was to try to ignore him, so I didn't look at him or respond verbally. I did look in my rearview mirror, and didn't see anything. I also watched the side of the truck, to be sure the driver didn't edge into the bike lane, which he did not. After the passenger shouted several times, when I didn't respond, the driver accelerated away. The tone of voice seemed friendly rather than theatening, but I'm not sure. I don't know what this interaction was about, just sending this as an fyi, in case anyone else encounters this truck.
