I have -almost- no problem at all riding my bicycle in the Historic section. Once in awhile I'll come across some cart or car driver who insists on giving me THEIR right of way, after I've done the correct thing and stopped fully at a stop sign, because I knew they had the right of way. In those cases, I get OFF my bicycle and refuse to budge until they've moved on.
Giving someone else your right of way could result in death to one of you. I'm not willing to take that chance. If you have the right of way, take it.
And once I was cut off, and it seemed like it was intentional. Intimidation of someone who was just not in the mood to see a bicycle on the road I guess? I dunno. I wore a purple helmet. Maybe that offended them. People are weird. I go into every ride with that acknowledgement, and drive accordingly.
