    I hope if you're riding alone you're carrying pepper spray or something. Flatting a single female would be a real good way to make sure she is stopped... I know that's a bad thought but I was married to a cop and believe me... people do some weird and evil stuff.

    Be safe. Sorry about the flats. I know how frustrating it is too!
    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".

    This was a part of the trail where it empties out onto a very busy intersection full of people racing to get onto I-5. I can think of more secluded areas on that trail and others where that sort of ambush tactic would be a real problem, though. I do ride alone alot, but I've never really been too concerned for my safety since I'm bigger (and stronger) than most men. (I also grew up with two extremely agressive and sadistic brothers and have a whole repitoire of dirty fighting tactics as a result). Never hurts to be careful though.
