Ride was okay this morning. Quick and uneventful (thankfully). It is however frustrating to have people come up to you and tell you what safety equipment you should have equipped on your bike and as part of your kit. I work at a company where safety is a big deal, but then we have a lot of self-proclaimed experts. I ride with a helmet rear flasher and rear reflector. If I am going to be working late I usually rock the safety vest. This morning however led one of the safety nuts to my lockup spot to tell me that I need to run a full light kit with reflective tape on the bike and this and that safety, safety, safety... blah blah blah. Needless to say, I tuned out after a few minutes of that. Besides, you can only engineer out so much of the risk out of a morning ride. The next step would be to not ride at all and live in fear of the outside world. I don't forsee that happening anytime soon. Hopefullly the ride home will end on a higher note than the ride in.
