I'm riding home in the dark as usual, and as I pass a young woman walking some sort of orange skinny-tire thing up the hill. As I ride by, she says "Nice legs". To which I reply, "uh, thanks". Now, as I get to the top of the hill, I think about this. It's pitch black on most of the hill. I have a 10W spotlight shinig from my head, plus front and rear flashers. I'm also wearing shants, so she can't really see my legs anyway. What she probably said was, "nice lights", and she probably meant it in a sarcastic way. Sigh. I rode by the house that my wife wants us to model our windows after. It's not bad with the stripes, but I think one broad stripe would be better and more dramatic. As long as the cats can see out, it's good by me.
