    That guy has to be an idiot! And why is he on that side of the road if he isn't passing?

    This is why I don’t like peddle bikes on the roads. They think they are being safe, for them. But are thinking in bike terms, hard to see that is a hill and blind curve. I met a pickup pulling a 20+ foot trailer in the middle of the curve choochin along around the 65 mph speed limit. I am sure that was interesting when they 30 seconds later.

    I too caught that it was on a small hill and wondered even more about the idiot. Perhaps bogydave is right.

    It was a terrible spot. We get lots of people that bike to and from the 48 to Alaska. This one is doing it later than most.

    Not everyone can be awesome like us Backwoods Savage ... some folks are-well....:whistle:

    If I didn't have a Big hill between me and work . I would ride my Fat Bike to work. But as it is, with no bike path. Ain't no way.
