Was riding through a temporary construction zone as a road crew was working on some potholes when a guy barked at me, obviously trying to intimidate or scare me. Offered a universal greeting as I went on with my ride. Shortly thereafter, pulled up at a light behind a fellow commuter (female, yay!) offered a "Good morning" and got a smile back in return. We both were heading to the same place (university), but I turned off before her (guess she was going to a different part of campus.) This represents the first time I've seen a female commuter in the AM on the way to the U. I was extremely impressed that she used every proper hand signal (more so than I tend to) and followed every traffic control device (more closely than I prefer to... stop signs suck, but I don't blow through them at speed, she stopped!) All in all, an enjoyable morning commute. Other than some storms predicted for midday today, the weather for the rest of the week looks really good for commuting! Maybe I'll do all 5 days this week!
