i was riding on tuesday and i went by a montgomery county cop sitting on the sidelines quietly hiding, i assume to monitor car's speed. he waved at me, i waved back. but i really wanted to yell at him - are you going to use the gun on me? how fast am i going?

last year during the livestrong ride, my sister and i were 'slowski-ing' along and there was one of those signs that monitors speed. at first, nothing was registering. and we broke up laughing. then, it flashed 11 mph, and at first, i looked behind us. then i realized there was no one but us, and we cheered - we're going 11 mph!!!
