This morning's madison commute

Warm, 72. Not much wind. Fast commute on a beautiful late summer day around the lakes. Starting to think about winter rig, unfortunately. The only negative was the 4 gang banger looking youths walking line abreast on the MUP when I came around the turn at 22 MPH. I yell "On your left" and they don't move. I look to the left, and pedestrians are walking in the opposite direction at well. I hit the brakes, and go far around to the right, almost losing it on the rough ground and rocks. I notice all four of the jerks are wearing headphones. I cheerily exchange pleasantries and take off again. That just pisses me off.
