Seems like we haven't had one of these in, well, about a month.:-D

Early this morning I rode down to the heart of the city, about 30 km, to pick up a box of V-brakes. I took city streets. No big deal. Very little traffic so early.

On the way back I decided to go on the MUP to avoid the mid-morning Saturday traffic. This is just about the time when all the runners, walkers, dog-walkers come out--8AM. How frustrating when every two minutes I have to steer around oblivious pedestrians. Then there are the group walkers who walk four abreast across the trail, or the dog walkers who let their dogs run free without leash, and runners with headphones, both of whom I always worry about running into my way.

Yeah, I know. They're probably thinking the same thing I am--what the heck is he doing on the trail! What a nuisance.

The trail part was about 20 km. Was it worth the frustration to avoid some light traffic? I dunno.

End of rant.
