Rode 23 Miles Today ...

Rode 23 miles today ... into town, then along the Dry Creek Trail. Rode around downtown and our neighborhood to get a few extra miles.

While riding through downtown some jerk yelled out his window, "Hey, you know I could have hit you!" I was riding in the center of the right lane, and this guy was the only car on the road! He was tail gating me for a couple of blocks before deciding to pass me, then yell rudely at me that he could have hit me.

I tried yelling back at him that I have a right to be on the road. I tried catching up to him so I could give him a piece of my mind ... wanted to tell him that he needs to be more careful and keep his eyes on the road so he won't hit somebody!!!

I was wearing my highly reflective construction vest, which is very visible!!! The only way he could have hit me is if he wasn't watching the road or is blind.
