Urban Bike Rant

Speaking of bike trails,

Why doesn't anyone on a bike know what TRACK means?

And when they want to pass they always say something unintelligible that gives no clue as to their intention.

Then there are the hazards.

We'll discount the family with kids, except to mention that on a 90 mi trail with only four blind corners, that's exactly where they will stop to deal with juvenile problems.

Then there's the informal club race peloton. The teenage as#@&%e drivers of the bike world. (But with a faster bike no longer a problem ;-)

The bike date;

The guy is always trying to keep alongside his intended prey chatting her up, our of shape enough that he's barely in control and completely oblivious to his surroundings.


Single hottie in the peloton;

The absolute worst!

She will attract an orbit of suitors like a uranium nucleus traps electrons, all swarming around her in testosterone fueled obliviousness, changing orbits with complete randomness.

I think I'd rather take my chances with MTA bus drivers.
