Introducing the Bike Lists!
In the first installment of what I imagine will become a regular feature illustrating the various ways to die (or just get annoyed) en route to work, I present the inaugural list:
Hazards to Avoid While Riding Legally in the Bike Lane (in no particular order)
--Homeless folks with shopping carts
--Double parked cars
--Delivery trucks
--Mail trucks
--Bikers going the wrong way (ie, straight at you)
--Drivers that insist upon passing, only to cut you off to make right turns
--Muni busses that insist upon passing, only to cut you off at the bus stop
--Drivers that pull out from their parking spots without looking
--Drivers that swerve into the lane for no apparent reason
--The infamous car doors
I'm really enjoying the new commute, AND I appreciate the opportunity to face my mortality, twice a day. It's quite invigorating. I highly recommend it.
