I caught myself drifting too far to the right, then thought that because Fort Wayne is a one-way street that's wide enough to divide into three lanes, it would be safe to ride in the "please pass me" position. !! NOT AT INTERSECTIONS IT AIN'T !! Luckily, the driver who wanted to turn right was smarter than I was, and no reportable incident occurred. Satchel Page once said, "Don't look back. Something might be gaining on you", but I don't think he rode a bicycle. My philosophy has always been, "look back to see what is gaining on you.... so you can avoid it" :-) They've got mirrors for that. -- Andrew Chaplin SIT MIHI GLADIUS SICUT SANCTO MARTINO (If you're going to e-mail me, you'll have to get "yourfinger." out.) |
