Last vestiges of my cold are on the way out, so I'm feeling better. Nice weather for the ride to class and then home last night after work. And it was yet another beautiful morning this morning. Had a jackhole pass me on the MUP with little disregard for oncoming traffic. He ended up detouring into the grass once he realized the situation he'd gotten himself info. He wasn't really going any faster than me either, do I ended up trailing him for some time and saw him make a few more boneheaded pass attempts, one on the 14th St Bridge, where he had to bind up his brakes to avoid taking it an oncoming cyclist. Each time it wad like watching a train wreck in slow motion. I could tell he wasn't going to make it, yet he pulled out anyway. Eventually passed him back coming off the bridge. Other than that moron and his antics, it was a very nice ride. Love being able to ride and NOT sweat profusely. Such a welcome change.
