He looked a bit sketchy to me.

I sat there in my vehicle for a few minutes getting the check and ATM card ready, but he spent the whole time putting on a pair of gloves. Why one would wear gloves in 90 degree weather in the summer is a good question.

I didn't have my CCW with me.

I ended up not getting out of my vehicle and driving back home.

But even if I had my snub in my pocket, I think I would have gone home just to avoid the chance of having to use it.

I went back the next day during business hours and deposited the check.

I feel like I'm getting paranoid.

I will say this. It's not uncommon for some people on bicycles to wear 'riding gloves", I used to wear them. He could have just used the ATM to make a withdrawal just as you pulled up. saw that a car was approaching, moved his bike out of the way before putting on his riding gloves before taking off...

As someone who is licensed to carry, not all things turn out the way you think they are.
