A cyclist has become an internet sensation after flipping Donald Trump the finger as she was overtaken by the presidential motorcade.
Her small moment of resistance was captured by a photographer shortly after the fleet of black 4x4s pulled out of Mr Trump's golf club in Virginia where he was
spending the weekend.
"Potus's motorcade departed the Trump National Golf Club at 3.12pm, passing two pedestrians, one of whom gave a thumbs down sign," read the dry report written by a member of the presidential press pool, using the acronym for the President of the United States.
"Then it overtook a female cyclist, wearing a white top and cycling helmet, who responded by giving the middle finger.
"The motorcade had to slow and the cyclist caught up, still offering the finger, before turning off in a different direction."
