8 Cyclists at an Intersection
I pulled up to a major intersection, here in Fort Collins, and by the time the light had changed there were 8 different cyclists facing varying directions at the intersection. I was behind 2 other cyclists, heading South, when a 4th cyclist pulled up and said, "WOW". Only he and I were wearing cyclist clothing.
Normally, I'm alone at this intersection, or at most, there is one other cyclist in sight. My son also commented on how he is seeing more and more cyclists, even though it is starting to get cold here. I hope this trend continues. There's a "Ride the Fat" event here in Fort Collins this weekend, and Bike Fort Collins is expecting 2000 riders to cycle down the major thoroughfare - College Avenue.
