At least he remembered to put his clothes on.
And the only person her could have endangered was, for the most part, himself.

it all- until today that is....
I was doing the run portion of my brick workout today along a dead end flat road that is next to a lake - ( at the end of the dead end road there is a path along some railway tracks that leads to a well known ( at least by locals) nudist beach)...( sorry for the huge run on sentence)
when I noticed a fellow 50ish(fully clothed) getting on his bike- from afar he look uncoordinated, as I got closer it looked like his helmut was on backwards. I ran to the end of the road and turned around and he was still fumbling and once he started to ride it was serpentine down the road.
I was not running quickly but I was keeping pace with him mainly since he was weaving the full width of the road ( and I was going straight)
I said to him " I think your helmut is on backwards" he said "maybe it is but as long as it works"- I said "I don't think it will work backwards"- at which point he ran into a parked car- I said I really don't think you should be riding your bike- and he said" at least I'm not driving"- he kept riding and then was faster than me- I yelled at him to stay out of traffic.
I think he had spent the afternoon at the beach and was loaded, I don't carry a cell phone but I wish I was today! I hope he didn't cause an accident or was hurt himself..I felt helpless- he was an accident waiting to happen

Is it possible he was just learning to ride a bike and chose a dead end road to practice on? Or was he obviously drunk?

he was obviously drunk- it was the first hot we we had here in a while and I suspect he was at the beach drinking all afternoon and then decided to ride his bike home- hopefully he did not have far to go...
