how nice to have mindful drivers.
had two incidents yesterday for me. car coming from the opposite direction decides to make a left hand turn right in front of me. YEEKS![]()
both drivers locked their wheel. I locked up my wheels too. I don't want my bike to be cremed.
Then with the warm weather, too many beach goers who stepped off the sidewalk right in front of you GRRRR!!! They think I can stop in time?? Cars are doing 30MPH, why don't they step in front of a car instead??
Training ride yesterday was avoidance training.
My other pet peeve. Car drivers always want to go faster than you even if its unsafe for ALL OF US. i.e. coming down a winding narrow road. Yesterday was no exception. but with one added twist. He started to hit the brakes after he got in front of me. I had to brake around hairpin turns... GRRR!!! (and I'm no where near my old speed)
You may ask why not take a different route? All these dogem took place on my way to my training ground up in Palos Verdes Ca.
hope for a better ride the next time. (or maybe I should really not ride anymore. Last hospital stay I said no more)
