Yelloooooo Friday

I am liking the Bridgestone even though I still can’t use the Purple Nitto post. *cry* I notice a little more reach in the top tube, but I think I could go for an even bigger frame, but that might impact my turning radius…. lol like that’s a problem. The geometry is a bit steeper than the Mercier, which makes skid stops waaay easier. Like for instance when some ass pulled out in front of me on the way to work today when I had right of way. I not only had to skid, but turn into his direction to not be clipped by him. When I stopped to ask him if he even saw me, he replied “Dude, I totally gave you right of way so you could turn!” When I told him I wasn’t turning, I didn’t even signal to turn, and was forced to turn or else he’d have clipped me on his way through the intersection, he got all defensive and started yelling at me, I returned the same attitude. Dude’s eyes were hella glazed and he looked like he had just waked and baked. To each their own, but that’s just not chill, braaaaaaaah!

Paperguy is a douchebag

I was riding to work the other day, this guy was parked in the bike lane in front of Biff’s Bagels, completely blocking it:


When I asked him if he could move the car, he said “No.” I said, you know you’re blocking the bike lane and that’s creating a dangerous and illegal traffic situation for both bikes and cars. Guy said, “too bad, it isn’t much of an inconvenience to ride around.”
Next time this guy does this, I wouldn’t feel bad if someone takes his keys and throws them on the roof.
