Is this a shy way of telling us you've been hung with the chain of office, Scharfie? If so, congratulations. Andre Jute What next, governor? |

I go by. Done. I wanted to say "you've just been passed by some decrepit old guy. You need to quit whining and work on your fitness." I was crawling home into a howling wind up hill, so it's not like I was going 100mph. I think he had about four helmet mirrors, so I don't know what additional information yelling would have provided. This will solve your problem: https://docs.google.com/document/ d/1lQzqFe5Uh37CxncGwUAuxDb2IEJnktzBHtSS478uvpg I have this setup on the bicycle I use to go to the store. It's mounted under the front Porteur rack, fairly concealed. A few honks on this and that millenial that was complaining about you will no longer be complaining. Sadly, not over here on a shared facility(about all). If you fail to use a device to warn them you're coming, you get abused. Use a device to let them know your passing and they jump right in front ready to become a bicycle rack. |
