Me Too!!

I feel a combination of feelings when I see someone cycling...
...anger and envy - why am I stuck in a car, this is sooooo unfair!

...pleasure and almost pride - yahoo, someone is out there and making us visible and having a great (I hope) ride... if I can't at least someone is

...guilt - I am soooo embarrased to be seen in a car. I feel the urge to slow right down, explain myself and make a cycling connection
