Heard him swear as I went by and heard the sounds of a yard sale behind me immediately afterwards.

Guess I should a little guilty but nawwww .... this moron was actually in MY lane coming directly towards me and ..... if with a 900 luman helmet lamp on my helmet he couldn't see me coming and stick to his own lane - he shouldn't have been on a bike period! If I DIDN'T have a light it would have been a sure collision.

So spank me already ... I just turned 59 last month and would really like to make it to 70
This is classic stuff!!
