Arrgh. Stupid me. Collided with a pedestrian on a pathway through campus this afternoon.
I always go a safe speed, knowing this could happen, and I always announce my presence
loudly and well in advance, but today was not my lucky day. The student was very
apologetic, and seemed genuinely concerned about me. She was also rather cute, so it
wasn't that bad... However, the wreck did tear a small chunk out of my Motobecane's
22 year-old one-piece faux leather bar wrap, so now I'm going to sob... the bike was pristine.
