when cars attack
Riding down 28th today, minding my own business, when a stupid SUV pulls out of a parking lot all fast right in front of me. I had no time to do anything except roll up onto the hood and then out into traffic. Everything turned out to be fine, my front wheel got knocked a bit out of true, but that was the extent of the damage, no injuries. The guy that hit me was really sorry and paid for me to get my wheel trued(which was nice, cause i don't have a stand). I'm just tired of getting hit by cars, I ride pretty safely, but I guess when I am on my fixie I become invisible to cars or something. Maybe I should start wearing a bright pink spandex suit every time I ride. I'm sure at least the ladies would notice that.
