Is that a Burma Shave haiku?

Coming in today, took Thing 2 in trailer to her daycare downtown, so had the urban assault route (urban assault on me, I mean, dodging buses that think they can out-accelerate me on the left and still cut me off to get back to their next stop a block later). Hadn't done that since summer, builds character. Still trying to work out the schedule for the new quarter (of my wife's gig). Last quarter I biked w/ Thing 1 to his K every day, this quarter I may be trailering thing 2 daily (summer, I took them both to the same daycare).

Oh yes, urban route = big hill, spun up it on 22t ring, maintained double-digit mph, definitely not possible when I started this, so that was nice.

Towards the end, on 5 lane big road (+ bike lane on either edge), SUV ran a red turn light trying to left hook me, but parked, passive-aggressively blocking the intersection. Hijinks ensued among him and the cars, w/ green light, that he was blocking.
