    [QUOTE=CorsairMac]I second that idea - of course then we'd get the "turning but no hand signal", the "slamming on the brakes with No Warning", and the "riding bike on the sidewalk/wrong side/" riders instead! ohhhh and the "talking on cell phone while riding bike" riders!

    and dont forget the riders with a gulp. Hee hee thanks to Tlkiwi I now know what that is.

    hmmmmm - now I"m wondering if we should offer Gulp Holders on our Menstrual Cycles??
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

    Red face Definitely something in the air.

    I've come off twice in two days. The first one was totally not my fault (see crazy pedestrians thread), but tonight's was a little thicker on my part; just because it's dark and you cannot see the gravelly/gritty bits on that particular corner, it does not mean they are no longer there. Took the corner too fast and with too much lean. Got my foot on the ground, but it slipped too. No real damage (to self or bike) but it kinda hurts when you land on a fresh bruise!
    Drink coffee and do stupid things faster with more energy.

    And what beverage would you have in your Big Gulp on your Menstrual-Cycle/Meno-Cycle? Make mine an iced soy milk latte for the extra phytoestrogens - maybe it'll put me in a better mood! Dang cars!

    BTW, is anyone interested in starting a "how was your commute today" sticky like they have over yonder at BikeJournal? It would give Corsair a place to tease us with her wonderful NM weather and all the rest of us somewhere to complain about lame-brained motorists!

    74 and clear as a bell - with skies a shade of blue you only see in the spring on a robins egg and the mountains all greens and tans due to the rainy season just ending here! (ain't I the stinker!)

    I am a nobody; nobody is perfect, and therefore I am perfect.

    I already told you...

    we don't need no gulps on our menstrual cycles...just pino grigio in our camelbacks, or, if you prefer, martinis.

    Ladies, GO GET A GREAT HEADLIGHT NOW!!! I'm on central time and it's starting to get really dark at 7 pm. I invested about $100 for a headlight and it is all I need for folks to see me, and for me to see at least 12 feet ahead.

    SO..what did you get? And from where? I've been reading endless forum opinions about lights and different types of batteries, etc. I'm corn-fused!
