The weather is getting better. It's supposed to be sunny as far as the forecasters can see. I took off the Nokians this morning, which made the ride faster.

But I had two near misses two blocks in a row. I was riding on a through street, all the side streets had stop signs. A truck and turned left from a side street immediately in front of me. Then a car did the same thing at the next intersection. They both stopped mid-intersection, and then I drove around in front of them.

It was daylight and I was wearing bright clothing. I guess they thought "STOP" only applied if cars had the right-of-way.
