I agree with your point in principle, but in my opinion I think you should be more careful how you go about it.
It's not your place to police the roads mate. And when you're ordering people about, they can in some cases turn violent without warning. Whatever point you're trying to be making will be secondary to the simple fact someone told them what to do.
By all means, if that car is blocking your way and you can't get past, then push the mirrors in. Either than or walk in the road. Don't argue with him: simply say he appears to be causing an obstruction - then simply ride on.
And yes, I do think he is causing an obstruction. But please, do not fall into the trap of arguing with someone spoiling for a verbal or other, altercation. Take the moral high ground. Too many nutters about.

p.s. I'm not anti-cyclist. The fact you were on a bike makes zero difference to me. I'd say the same were you in car or on a motorbike, or on foot.

"I'm on a shared use path (Manchester Road, Cheadle, Stockport) and ahead I can see a parked Audi has pretty much blocked the path. This path is shared use, for pedestrians and cyclists and has a 24 hour no parking restriction.
After weighing up the risks of cycling on the road, which is busy, has a very narrow lane and no dropped kerb for 1/2 mile, I decide the safest option is to carefully navigate past the Audi. Carefully, as in I have very narrow strip of pavement thats less than the width of my bars to get me and the bike with pannier through. Also I'm really trying not to catch my bike on the Audi's paintwork. In order not to risk catching myself or the bike on the door mirror, I carefully fold it in. At this point the owner of the Audi makes himself known, by telling me not to touch his f**king car. Now I realise he's been watching me struggle the whole time and instead of thinking "oh I'm causing a problem here", he thinks he's perfectly entitled to dump his car there and have a go at me. (If you're watching Stockport Council, every Saturday morning). There's parking available a 5min walk away, so there's really no excuse. I could see I wasn't going to get anywhere with the driver, but luckily another cyclist turned up and asked him to move his car. She definitely wouldn't have got through otherwise. After he moved his car he got told again by a third cyclist. I guarantee his car will be there in future, so I'm uploading this video to show Stockport Council there is a parking problem here."

no i agree with the cyclist telling the driver off0- he cant park there, he cant even drive onto it legally, its a pavement, you must not drive onto one. Shared path too, but in principle, it is still a pavement so cars can't go on it. I would actually get off the bike and walk it up over the bonnet, over the roof and down the other side and im not saying that being a kayboard warrior, i would do it knowing i was in the right. Might snap the windscreen but that would still be the drivers fault. Doubt they could prosecute too as you could just ride off. Same goes for wheelchair users, if they have the ability to get off and push the chair over the roof, then do so. Teach the driver they cant dump their stupid audi on pavements.
