Tell me about it. If I head out to the farmer's market or wherever on the weekend, I'll be halfway to work before I remember, "Ohh yeah I should have turned right not left out of my driveway".
It's much worse than when I was driving or walking. I think its the zen state you get into when your bike is whirrring along like the uber-machine that it and you are together.
