If it makes you feel any better, this happened recently to me in my neighborhood. The cyclist offered to call the police, I told him to go fuck himself and have a nice day. Its simply not my responsibility to move. Cyclist is clearly in the wrong. If you're riding your bike on the sidewalk you're either knowingly breaking the law or you're a 2-12 year old trick or treating. I also say this as a person who regularly rides their bicycle in this city.

Can you remember a day where you haven't heard or said some form of this at least once or twice?

What good would him calling the police do? Did he think he was in the right?

Yeah, that was my impression. Like it was a car accident or something? Some people just think they are the main character.
