    The people on bikes that I see that normally don't follow the traffic laws very well are the people biking for exercise. My bike is my main method of transportation to and from work and so I try to treat it like I would a car.

    Bike riders frighten me especially kids, I am scared to death they are going to veer to the left in front of my car, so I give them a wide berth but in doing that im over the line into the other lane.

    Woke up to seventy or so degrees, which in Arizona is rare for October 11.
    Had my usual wake-up concoction of equal parts high PH water, Gatorade and cold coffee. I know, all three in the same 16 ounce glass tastes weird but it gives me sugars, salt and caffeine in one hydrating drink.
    Skipped the morning shave as I shaved last evening.

    Travel into work was a breeze which is unusual.
    However, one particular associate was causing disruption and upset across several departments. I had to play the cooler because it is one of my unsung attributes. The biggest issue is having to listen the stories/grievances/whining.

    All in all it's a good day. Except for having to be at work when the weather begs for 18 holes, a hike or a relaxing time at the outdoor shooting range.

    Be safe Chloe. Those people on their phones texting and whatnot are a menace on the road nowadays.

    Most people on bikes are more worried that a car will veer left or right. I've had cars pass me as if I wasn't even there, purposefully I think sometimes, and I swear there's maybe a foot between me and it.

    I have been in a bad mood for a while.

    Any day that I don't tell someone to go $#@! themselves is a good day.

    My father rides 15k to work, and 15k home. He has been hit numerous times and run off the road numerous times, and he follows the rules of the road (meaning there is no reason he should be hit). People frequently curse at him for no apparent reason. People in cars simply don't like people on bikes, usually because they have a preconceived opinion based on a few cases of the type of people who don't follow the rules a cyclist is supposed to follow. That makes everyone on a bike an $#@!.

    People are lame.

    Running a 50-year old man off the road for no reason is ridiculous.

    Well, just stop telling people to go $#@! themselves and you should have a wonderful life.


    That will be $450. Paypal is fine, and thank you, you have made my day good!

    Nah. It is either tell them to go $#@! themselves, or rip their faces off with my bare hands.

    I'll stick to words until this passes.
