I was as far to the right as I could get, and yet he kept coming. He finally looked up at the last minute and saw my bright yellow shirt and jerked back into his lane... just before I had to figure out how to unclip and abandon the bike in one move.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06909274997958022179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2523357558654725888.post-31436804104153609462011-08-17T13:25:48.561-05:002011-08-17T13:25:48.561-05:00"Hurtling into the void for the final appoint..."Hurtling into the void for the final appointment" is pretty good imagery.

Then this person stopped at the stop sign for a good 3 minutes. I waited for a minute to see if this person was okay, but then I saw them fumbling around on the passenger seat for something (probably the darn phone), all the while merrily parked right smack in the middle of the street. I eventually had to pass (overtake) this person....<br /><br />Anyways, be safe out there; as safe as you can be!<br /><br />Peace :)GreenComotionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11272116464292908327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2523357558654725888.post-42693108589960274312011-08-12T21:01:54.895-05:002011-08-12T21:01:54.895-05:00That is not the only thing Texas has going for it....That is not the only thing Texas has going for it. My spouse and I drove every state in the union professionally and Texas is the only state where we regularly encountered people cruising at highway speed on the shoulder.<br />I want to emphasize "regularly" as meaning everyday. Other states, maybe once a year if they had a flat.Oldfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14688289425207257034noreply@blogger.com
