It was a dry commute home Thursday after the heavy rain in the morning. I took Friday off since my son's daycare was closed for the day.
We had a nice weekend.
But I almost ran over a cyclist in the downtown area Friday afternoon. I was driving had a green and was in the right most of 6 lanes. I was going and suddenly from the left across all six lanes comes a guy. I slammed on the brakes and laid on the horn since he was not very aware; he did run a light which had been green for at least 10 seconds. He flipped me off and I safely passed him. He then yelled at me as he filtered by about not being a rectum or something. My wife was mad at me, she said he obviously wasn't all there, but he was pretty with it in my opinion just with a few screws loose, and to give him a break. Which I replied I did by being aware and not hitting him. Anyway I am unsure how she turned me into the bad guy.
This morning the ride was nice. It was cool but not too bad. I felt nice and rested which was what I needed. I held my tongue at a cyclist who ran a stop sign as I was turning left and went across my path. I took the turn safely but close enough to make the guys face go into the confused puppy dog and oh crap look as he realized I was turning into him.
I think that this is bike to work week but I did not see any of the amenities they usually have.
