I've seen that shirt/message before. Is it wise to engage drivers with a provocative message (common sense, yes, but provocative nevertheless) when one is on a bike and they are in a car? It almost seems like a direct invitation to retaliatory ******y driver behavior at best, or road rage/bodily harm at worst. From a Darwinian perspective, that doesn't seem very smart to me.

Well, delivery matters, and I'd say "3 feet please" is less confrontational than "You own a car, not the road".

No, it isn't, until you (not you, specifically, but anyone) get run off the road, have **** thrown at you, etc.

Ah i wish! I dont have the patience (or money, for that matter) to shoot film anymore. But These were shot with my Fuji XT10 and XF 23mm 1.4 and the edits were done in lightroom CC

I don't know what it is, but I like it. Second to last one looks vaguely digital, though.

/sarcasm

I was fairly certain it was digital. Probably VSCO presets, too. Could be wrong tho.

I see what you did there. Well, I've shot loads of film, I like the way it looks, I hate the way it costs.

I also hate (for the most part) hugely falsely faded images from curves in LR. I have used VSCO before, but now I do all my own edits for the most part. Unless I hate the way my edits are looking, then I use some help.

Different spokes for different stokes. I like them, lol.

San Diego! I was out there this morning. Headed up to Leucadia and back from my apt in Linda Vista. I felt really strong this morning.

Nice shot of Moonlight Beach right there.

Nice! I live in Leucadia! Just went for a short ride. I, on the other hand, did not feel strong this morning.

Not as dramatic as the Pacific Coast but I felt strong too. Almost 70° in NW Georgia today and I was able to fit a 15 mile FG ride between conference calls. It was difficult to turn around and I toyed with the idea of blowing off the rest of the day...
