And that is why my wife isn't too keen on taking the dog for a run by herself in Russian Jack in the predawn hours. Personally I would rather deal with the moose and the bears than the humans living in the park. Moose and bear you have a better chance of reasoning with.

What I saw was a younger guy, out of the saddle and pedaling hard, no longer weaving, face red and contorted with rage, screaming about killing me and coming on hard.
I quickly changed my evaluation from 'drunk' to 'insane', put the hammer down, and made amazing time the rest of the way to work. Seriously, I left the house almost 10 minutes later than I should, and still showed up with loads of extra time.
Wish I was home and riding. Instead stuck in Quebec City, but the weather is improving so I might get some rides in here.
