Almost got killed on the morning group ride this AM. Riding along the river road in a group of 8, an SUV coming in the opposite direction veered to the left side of the road and came right at us. We all hit the brakes and moved hard to the right - several of us jumping the curb and/or falling over onto the grass. Somehow we managed not to hit each other. Just before hitting us he veered back into his lane. He had NO reason to come into our lane and we don't know if he had malicious intent or if he was crazy/drunk/stoned/nodding off. But he scared the crap out of us.
Sadly, none of us had the presence of mind to get his license plate.
Other than that, it was a fine sunny morning for a ride....
Be careful out there folks.
