Walked 2.5 miles to the bus this morning. Impending drinkage after work.

On my ride home yesterday, I was stopped on the "bike bridge" admiring the scenery and sipping some water, and two roadies went by in full spandex. I couldn't resist. Put the water bottle into the cage, and chased them. They weren't going all that fast so I caught them pretty quickly. 18 or 19MPH.

There's a "bike path" next to the residential street we were on, but it's not good for the velocities we were doing. A woman in a cage driving in the other direction yelled something at them, and I didn't hear what she said. The lead roadie turned around and gave her "the look". I just shook my head and chuckled.
