I braked a little to start with, as I figured the car would keep goiing ahead down the road, but no. The idiot blocked my whole lane so they could make a right turn, then stopped for a pedestrian. I locked up both brakes for a good 5 feet before I could deke around the back of the car. I'm going to start riding with my light on in the morning. This is getting stupid.
yeah, got my lights on now as well.
My poor knees are still giving me grief, not used to daily riding after a 3 week layoff (really wore myself out doing the Transrockies last month) the ride home yesterday was a bit congested, still looking for different options there.
