This guy was just as Fred as me; had very good blinking tail lights, bright yellow jacket. I was about 60 yards behind him for about 4 miles. This isn't my normal commute time, I was running an hour late today, so I may not see him again soon.
Wow. On my commute I see
In San Francisco 50+
At the train station getting off trains 30+
On the Train 50 or so at some point
Sunnyvale - 30+, including day laborers at home depot
Same on the reverse.

And we still whine about getting no respect. Different worlds.
