Uneventful rides since my last post with the exception of last Friday.

I'm heading home from work, make a turn onto a road where visibility isn't great until a certain point. I hear an SUV behind me so when we get to that certain point, I make a move to the right to signal it's okay to pass me. SUV stays back. I look back over my shoulder, and SUV is still at a safe distance, so I figure the driver is just a little timid. We get to another point where it's safe to pass, and I look back again. SUV still not moving up. "Oh well," I think. "Just someone being extra careful."

So I reach a hill on this road. I hear the SUV speeding up to pass, so I stay to the right (road is plenty wide at this point). SUV slowly drives past me, and now I realize why they were hanging back. Teenagers hang out the window while Eye of the Tiger blasts on the stereo. I flash the horns, and a cheer goes up within the SUV.

I guess the kids are alright.
