Pretty accurate illustration of how I ride..
After a too long battle with Bronchitis, and apparently a hell of a lingering cough, I'm back in the saddle. Riding has reminded me that being as forthcoming and safe as possible yields the best results. I often try to empathize with other road users, but too often I just get blatant assholery and far too often witness other cyclist being complete idiots...
To be fair, the shortest distance between two points is a straight line
It is things like this that really make me shake my head in shame. Yeah I know me yelling at terrible drivers is a drop in the bucket and more education AND infrastructure is far more helpful, but look at these two. In front of tens of drivers they just run a red light and simultaneously cut off two drivers turning from opposite directions. That is a special kind of ignorance that is seldom seen. Unfortunately at this moment they are on bikes.
On a lighter and happier note I ended up traversing Kendall after a canceled bike ride and went thrifting. The local Goodwills and Salvation Army can sometimes bring up good finds, and boy did I luck out today! The retainer was badly damaged but I had a hunch that this helmet was worth more than a cool Benjamin. After heading over to my bike shop Cycle World Miami, they quickly found me the bike retainer that I needed for the Gyro Atmos, turns out, it is lighter and completely redone, that's just dandy! The full price version.... In all honestly I am a bit on the poor side, I do my best to support my local bike shop. Especially those with the means, head over to Cycle World Miami to get fitted for a new bike, they are good people and do great work! |

Here is another "I almost died again!" video, but I hope the new focus on art instead of documentation makes it more entertaining. I sencerly apprciate feedback and hell critisize it, but if anything, watch it!
