But the woman I saw was bent over @ 6:00 p.m. at a well used transit center. There are always people there waiting for a bus. That stop services three popular runs and one not-so-popular run.

She couldn't have been more public if it was noon in front of the county courthouse and she was screaming "Look at the distance I get!!!! Look!!!!! How's that for distance!!!!???!!!???"

Could be she wanted to be seen. Maybe she likes creeping normal people like you out.

I don't think it would help. There's something about city bus stations that seems to make them magnets for that sort of behavior.

My 10-year-old and I were finishing a cross-state bike tour in Albany last year when we rode by the Albany bus station, which was next to our hotel. In the space of about 30 yards we had a passed-out drunk guy, a guy shooting up with a hypodermic needle, a woman pissing in public, and a religious nut telling us we were going to hell.

Oddly enough, it was a nice hotel and extremely bike-tourist friendly.
