snobs or not?

[AllezGirl]

Ya' know, I have to thank Veronica and all the others who have posted yummy cookie recipes in the past...I haven't ever had to pay one red cent for bike maintenance, yet the mechanics at my LBS still love to see my face! (Er, at least...well...they really love to see the plate of warm, homemade cookies...)

As for the snob/waving thing...all I can say is that in general, I'm a really nice, friendly person. I'm active in my cycling club, volunteer whenever needed and love to "spread the joy" of cycling (even been known to loan a bike to a fellow TE gal when necessary ) However, when I'm alone on the trail (note ALONE & on the TRAIL...not in a group, not on the road), it's all about me! ...so, if that puts me into the ranks of ipod wearing, non-waving, unfriendly, kit-wearing snobs, so be it. And to make matters worse, I don't announce "on your left" unless it's necessary, let alone "excuse me, stay right there while I pass you on your left...thank you very much, have a nice day"...besides, how can you not know I'm coming...didncha hear the sonic boom?

There, I said it, I'm not always nice...confession IS good for the soul...

All kidding aside...I can't help if you label me "rude" because of how I chose to ride on the trail. However, I can assure you that I'm not judging anyone.

Reading all this makes me remember that everything is not always about me.

I bet sometime, somewhere, I may have not waved at someone and they may have judged me. I try not to be one of those people that goes around judging everyone all the time, yet, sometimes, I catch myself doing it.

Thank you for reminding me to slap myself and not be judgemental of others.
I truly appreciate and need an ocasional reality check.
