on my old commute I felt so fast sometimes I thought my tires would burst into flames. always thought it would be fun to dress as a superhero while riding really fast. Spiderman I thought cuz, you know, no cape to slow me down

I wore a tux, but that was because I was on the way to sing in a concert. I got laughed at by a bystander.

I once rode home in a yellow tyvek hazmat suit. Rainstorm surprised me right at quitting time so I grabbed on from my go kit.. Kept me dry and was nicely visible, but it made the oddest sound as I pedaled.
