Light rain last night on the way home. The trip home is pretty quick, so I just rode it out in my Tshirt. It's only water anyways.

Had some fool trick me with his blinker.... 4 lane section and he was pacing behind me to the left with his right blinker on. There was a turn lane to my right, so I figured he wanted in the lane but wasnt sure. I moved left into the lane to signal my intent to go straght. He followed me [straight] up the hill at 30mph [in a 40] with his right blinker still flashing. Lesson learned...Blinkers are a lousy guide of a drivers true intent. But I suppose I already knew that.

This morning's ride was was like playing Frogger... cars everywhere. Seemed like every cross street had someone waiting to pull out. Packs of unleashed dog walkers, etc. I put the flashing LED headlight on the bars this morning and I believe it kept the whole lot of them at bay. It's pretty bright and obnoxious.
