Yesterday:
On the way home I was riding per usual speed. From behind I heard a funny clikety noise. Within moments a fat dude on a bike overtook me! He was wearing t-shirt and pants. in 33C 50% humidity conditions! I was stunned. Thought I must've had a flat. Nope. All seems well. Am I in the wrong gear? Nope, seems to be fine. Cadence is OK. So how the hell this oversize fellow overtook me so easily?
Partly driven by a mix of WTFness and competitive nature, I made the chase. Finally got close to the MegaClydesaurus and saw a BIONX box on bike frame. Whew! What a relief. Paced him for a while. Then he stopped short of climbing a bridge and dismounted. Maybe it ran out of battery? Dunno. But I left him at the foot of the bridge.
While I admit, I do harbor a bit of a disdain to assisted pedalling bicycles, I am glad at least it got a person to ride who may otherwise not. So thumbs up to them.

Today:
Came head to head with a salmon. It was on a busy road. I went as near to the right side as possible in an effort to persuade him over to the outside of the bike lane. But the salmon abruptly stopped. Without a choice, I had to go on the outside. Told him that he was on the wrong side.
