Thought it was just me. In the last couple days traffic has doubled and the number of irradic/spontaneous/unaware drivers have tripled. Almost had some fat lard*** in a big macho pickup truck slam right into me. Of course, it appeared that once he saw someone on a bike his temper flew through the roof with hatred. Probably just finished watching FOX NEWS and they told all the viewers to kill everyone on bicycles.. or something along those very lines.
I believe it's a combination of a few things....
1. Gas prices/Economy
2. Democratic Convention/Politics
3. Kids going back to school; shopping
4. Labor Day Weekend approaching
Be cautious.. be safe.
