Ahhh...the irony. I was out one time in Montana in the steaming summer heat and someone threw a paper cup of ice water on me....ahhhhhhhh. The road has always been a romantically dangerous place. There is only one best time and place for touring: HERE AND NOW! :) |
I have also read about stone-throwing happening in certain parts of Ethiopia.

Nobody ever throws double cheese burgers at me. :-(

When I was walking to the bus some kid threw a rock from his window but it has never happened cycling. Once I was going to the store to pick up some random items and some kids in a vehicle yelled "roadie" at me which was hilarious because I was wearing non-cycling clothing on my touring bike and wasn't even going very fast at all. I had a good laugh at that one.
