I'd have a big time confrontation with him - but that's just me.

I think I have adult ADD; I as a kid had no problem biking at all, never a spill. Now with my new bike I am falling and wiping out so bad that I could cry!!!!


Waaaaahhhhhhh!!! am I such an old F**k that I can't even ride a bike or is it the bike? Maybe I got the wrong one.

Everything distracts me; feel of the bike, the shifting of gears, that I am left handed, you name it, I am distracted.

There is a dude who I have seen a couple of times who rides in a flesh coloured body suit. That is disturbing/distracting.

According to the California Highway code, anything that comes flying out of a vehicle is litter (ie grass clippings) except for two things: water and chicken feathers. Get him with both next time his window is down.

Worst crash I ever had was from looking at a girl in a small top with big.....well she was hot and I was on the ground before I knew what happened.
Damn concrete dividers!
