    Oh, that guy has been around for a while. We first saw him on RSVP two years ago. He seems puzzled by the incredulous response he gets from bikers. Apparently zips up the hills with no problem, but I've never seen him on the hills, only on the flats.

    Memorable things I saw on the stp was the unicycle guy! I heard about him for years but I never saw him until this year's stp. And I saw a guy in a white shell that enclosed his recumbent. I passed him going up a steep hill but he passed me going down it! I also saw a lot of people with "things" on their bikes and/or themselves. A 12 inch tall T-Rex on the back of one man's bike, a big red flashing light on top of someone's helmet that had a spring that attached it to the helmet so it "bounced" and "bobbed" along as he rode, and I couldn't believe the riders who brazenly, shamelessly, boldly disregarded the "no ear buds" rule! This request was for their safety and the safety of all the other riders on the roads that day! I yelled on your left (and I yell loudly) to someone who apparently had the things in his ear and he of course did not hear me and almost weaved into me just as I approached. I said something to him regarding taking those dang things out of his ears but he probably didn't hear me! I was so mad at the idiot!
