That must be nice. I pulled off of Kirby and onto shephard one evening and saw like 20 or 30 cyclists taking up a lane or 2 coming in the opposite direction. I think one of them commented on "oh theres the green guy" (referring to me mabye?) . I wish more roads here in Houston had shoulders so that I don't have to take up part of a lane.
