Beware

Due to a stomach flu last week, I pretty much spent M-Sa of last week in my bed watching Netflix movies on my laptop. After lots of rest and a lot of movies, I went on a ride yesterday (in my fab new beer jersey). Did an easy 12 miles in the city, just to see strength wise were I was at. The ride was fun - and I decided to do my usual 20 mile city ride the next day.

The ride felt great. Loved being back out there, it felt so good to move again. But, today I came across something even more dangerous than a tourist with a rented bike: the mini van Moms. The Peninsula women who are shopping in the city and attempting to navigate San Francisco. I almost got hit several times today. One mini van was really close, and I actually screamed and cussed out the woman. Honestly, she was trying to turn the wrong way on a one way street - if anything, people should be thankful I swore at her.

I will try harder to wake up earlier and ride when no one is driving. I think that's kinda the only solution here.
