    One of those days you need a dog to follow you around.
    Dogs- they take all that blame, and only ask treats and leftovers as payment.

    Dear shipping company,
    Geez! Will you get it together already?! I've waited three weeks while you sorted it out which one of you companies was supposed to handle the final stretch. Then you waited for the check from them to actually reach your bank (another week). And now you say you have to wait til next week when you've got a truck scheduled to do the drive? It's an 8-hour drive, for gosh sakes, between the first and fourth largest cities in the country, and you only send a truck up once a week?
    Sigh.
    At least be careful not to damage my bike! I expect to be over my bronchitis by the time it gets here and I don't want to have to wait out repair time before riding it!

    Deat legs,

    Thank you for putting up with the 10 mile headwinds, up hill. Thank you for tolerating me going all out for the nearly 20 miles that followed. Thank you not being sore today.

    Dear rain gods,

    Thank you for raining all day today. We need it sooooo much.

    Dear unknown teenaged male riding beater or bmx style bike...

    No, you do not look cool riding on the side of the road, against traffic, with no helmet. Oh yes, I forgot to mention you're wearing dark clothes at dusk (and you don't have a light) and appear to be listening to music. I can understand why you think you might, in your baggy jeans and laid back attitude.

    But you're really risking your life every time you ride like this. A helmet, some lights, taking the headphones off - this seems like common sense when biking in a car populated world. Riding on the right side of the road, maybe not something you would guess is the right thing to do, but if you learned a bit about your chosen transportation, then you'd know this too....

    Signed, a concerned cyclist and car driver.

    Dear idiot woman in the mercedes who p***ed me off today...
    Thanks for being the free spirit that you are by throwing caution to the wind when we came upon a 4-way stop with a skittish horse in training, attached to an Amish buggy full of kids. Thanks for not understanding when we decided to allow the horse all the time he needed to calm down and resume peacefully so we didn't get hoofed to death crossing the road. I especially appreciate all of the horn blowing and expletives out the window regarding how we are holding up traffic. (You were the only car around so I'm not sure that constitutes a line being formed. ) It certainly made and impact on us and I know it made the horse so much more comfortable with his ultimate decision to bolt in our direction. The fact that we didn't get trampled amazes me still. Now I have a nice gash in my leg from falling onto a good friend of mine and her bike. My first fall, thankyouverymuch. (I thought it would come when I finally get my clipless pedals on, but no this one is all on you, oh Diva of Mayhem.)
    Not being from this area, I'm sure you may not have understood some of the language I was using as I limped over to your window for a close encounter of the dangerous kind. All I can say is, try Google, it knows all. If you can't quite remember all of the commentary, feel free to come on back around and I'll remind you again.
    Have a nice day! (Here's your sign.)
    -X.

    Dear Woman With the Boxer,

    If your dog is so mean that it will eat a small dog you might want to reconsider having it in an apartment complex. I realize my little Heidi should not have pulled away her leash, but I was chasing her down. She is simply a social butterfly and we have tried to teach her all dogs are not friendly. I felt bad enough without being scolded by a complete stranger.

    Sincerely,

    Glad to be moving to my own house with a fenced yard

    Dear OTHER woman with the boxer,
    You may think there is nothing wrong with chaining your boxer and your rottweiler to trees right in your front yard about 12 yards back from the road we ride along, as you informed me "they are on my property so I'm within my rights" when I came up to politely talk to you about it and you closed your door in my face.
    But the fact is, your vicious dogs are barking and snarling and throwing themselves against their chains and collars with all their might when we pass on our bikes, threatening everyone on the public road, and one day their collar or chain may snap and from my hospital bed, covered with skin graphs, I will sue your sorry moronic a** for everything you've got.

    Dear Losers Who Fish, Picnic, or Otherwise Populate the Banks of my River,

    It's not a dump site you lazy SOBs and I don't appreciate kayaking amongst your filth. I'm surprised you can get your pathetic lazy butt off your couch.
