Scary things

My memory! Finally got to my old computer and can log in. I believe we are all in line for the dreaded CRS disease, it's just how close to the front are you? I must be getting there rapidly. Rode to work this morning and got to the office and picked up my towel and clothes to go downstairs to take a shower and forgot my pants on my desk. Had to put all my cycling stuff back on and truckit up stairs then back down. Glad I left them here yesterday or I could have been pantless today. Not a good thing with the way people are around here in TX. Back in New Orleans I probably would gotten away with it. I might need a small note pad to carry around with me. What day is it? At least I can remember that down at the right corner of the screen. Happy Halloween everyone.

Policia

Never there when you need one but always there to hassle you. Traffic had no problems going around me yesterday morning until the cop got behind me. I thought at first this guy must have some brake problems. Turns out he was just hitting the button on his intercom to get me to move. Hey dumb ass there is a curb right next to me and if I move any further over to the right my pedal will hit it and I will surely end up on the ground and under your tires. He finally came on his loud speaker and told me to turn in the parking lot so he wouldn't hit me. No one else had that problem. Where do these guys learn how to drive. Of course... he was probably late for the hot doughnuts down the street.

Double letter states

They have to be the worst drivers. It hasn't failed here. Everytime I have a close call with some ignorant motorist their license plate is from Mississippi (the worst), Tennessee or Pennsylvania. I haven't had problems with Hawaii but not sure how that would go. Is it something with the double letters? The level of education? or down right stupidity. I think the later because I don't like traveling through any of these states in the first place. It has to do with the drivers. All the drivers ed flunkies have congregated to these states. It's got to be the repetitive letters.

aan

Another day and another blog about not much. Got in close to 60 miles this weekend and my legs are sore. Not used to the rolling hills I have been pounding. I really haven't rode the hills out west yet but plan to do so someday. Got my sights set on the Wurstride. It will be nice to suck down some brews and feast on some brats at the end of a long ride.
