I don't know what my dogs would have done. They're extremely protective of me.
um, TsPoet, he had missing fingers AND toes??
i think you did the right thing too.
I hope I don't run into THAT guy.
When a rider silently passes by my DH he hollers loudly "I'm on your right!" It ususally gets them to look back at him, most say "Oh, sorry, On your left", some laugh, some swear, but it does at least get their attention.Quote:

And I say, sorry, you scared the crap out of me, sneaking up on me like that. :D

You did the right thing, reacting like you did - You were protecting Murphy and Finn like they would protect you. "Just Reflex" is a good thing. You didn't take time to stop and think about what to do, so you didn't give him time to do much either. I'm glad you're ok, and the dogs too.Quote:

Did you catch the crash? I woke up to late and missed some of the action :rolleyes:
Man I can't help but cheer for all of them-- anytime someone comes to front I get excited for them. It's such a feat to be there at all! :D
I think Cadel is on my team. Wonder if I won anything?
Are you playing fantasy Tour de France?
I'm playing something:o
It came in an email. maybe it's from versus?
I've never understood the appeal of fantasy sports until I though about fantasy Tour de France. That would be awesome!!! Although, I haven't been paying enough attention the lasat year or so to actually be good at it. Still... worth thinking about for next year, especially since I have summers off.
The weather has finally been glorious for 2 whole days. I had a lazy day today First, I watched the Tour until 11:30 AM. Then, we rode a whopping 4 miles to go to the bank machine and pick up sandwiches for a picnic. I keep forgetting that the Cheese Shop is closed on Sunday and I was craving one of their many unique sandwiches. But we got some chicken pesto wraps somewhere else and rode over to the Old North Bridge and had a picnic on the lawn, under a huge tree by the visitor's center. It was busy there. There was a mobile "tea wagon" parked in the lot, which I didn't know about. I will have to try that out next week. We watched the tourists and counted about 30 cyclists who rode by, as we were eating. One was on a tandem that was recumbent in the front and regular in the second seat. I wouldn't want to be on the front of that one! We also saw a tandem with 2 adults and 2 kids; one in a seat behind the second adult and one in a trailer.
Rode home for a total of 8 miles. Then I went to the pond and read and sat in the sun for 2 hours.
after my long walk yesterday (3 hour street scramble) i decided MORE walking was what i needed, so i walked 2 miles today.
I'm glad you east coasters are finally getting nice weather
