    Weekend bike ride

    Kent Cowgill

    August 23:

    I got out on my bike today. Pretty close to the same route that I did last Saturday, though instead of cutting a straighter line through the city to get back to the house in time, I just turned around and went the same route home. The good news is that there wasn't the Air and Water show going on, so the bike path wasn't absolutely jam-packed with people like it was last week. However, the people who are there normally (runners, walkers, roller-bladers, and other bikers) just have no clue how to coexist in the world with other people. It's simple - keep to the right, but get to the left to pass. Once you've passed, get back to the right. Don't run 3 people abreast. Don't ride in a huge clump of people with opposing foot or bike traffic. Be aware of your surroundings. And that means get those earphones out of your ears! How are you supposed to hear me yell out "on your left" so I can safely pass you, much less "OMG LOOK OUT FOR THAT BABY".

    I also had the incredible good fortune to have either a cross wind or a head wind going south, and then again on my way back. So my average speed wasn't great, but there were a few times I actually caught a tail wind and kept a pace of 20 mph. But there was more than a few times where I had to slog along at 12 or 13 mph.

    Sunday was a day of rest. I like those.
