I had a bad experience earlier this week with a close call "brush off" from a lady that was wound just a bit too tight. Man alive!! I made her wait maybe 10 seconds and then she decided to cut it too close and almost brushed my left hip (definately on purpose). I was not to be deterred!!

I road again today (my commute is a bit over 30 miles round trip). Despite the traffic being very heavy on the way home I had a perfectly fantastic ride!! Slight downhill, slight tailwind at times and a couple of times kept up with traffic speeds (I love to do that. Had a couple of good climbs too and felt great despite recovering from a twisted knee from 7 weeks ago. Man it feels great to be back in the commuting groove again!
