Some just don't understand.

No, they don't. Wait'll it rains and she offers you another ride.
I had a fast commute today. I noticed a rider far behind me so I picked up the pace. He never caught up. Sometimes I feel silly doing that but it does give me more work to do. I passed two other riders in the process.
I also got uppity!

In Burlington the trail winds past the lake waterfront and they're setting up tents and what-not for the city-wide jazz festival. Two people had decided to use the trail as a service road and parked their pickup trucks in the middle of the pavement. Pedestrians aren't even supposed to be on this part of the trail, and here I've got two trucks blocking it. I guess I had a bunch of adrenaline in me because I slowed way down to work past the trucks and yelled, "YOU GUYS NEED TO MOVE THESE TRUCKS!" Then for emphasis, and I'm usually not one to be so glib, I yelled over my shoulder, "OR I'll MOVE THEM FOR YOU!" Pointless, really. Yet satisfying.
