It must be Friday. I felt tired all the way to work. Or maybe it's the heat.

Otherwise a good ride except for one minor incident. Summer camp for kids has started again at the college campus I ride through. Wednesday there were 8 cars parked in the bike lane. Today there were 5 cars with a line of cars waiting to pull into the bike lane to park. I almost got hit as I was turning out of the bike lane to pass these @$$holes. The driver of the car that nearly hit saw me pulling out and hit the gas to take my place in line -- in the bike lane.
Wednesday I reported the problem to the parking cops. Did the same today. Today they recognized me as soon as I walked in the door, and before I could speak, asked if the bike lane was again blocked with cars.
I fully expect the problem to continue through the summer so they'll be seeing a lot of me.
Hmm. I wonder if the parking cops serve breakfast?
