An Old Airman's Life

A ride to lunch

Worked from home today. About 12:45, rode to The Flying Saucer to have a pint and lunch with a friend. Had hoped to sit outside in the sun on their patio. By noon time, the sun went behind the clouds and patio weather faded. This weekend is supposed to be okay cycling weather. A bit of rain on Saturday and cool on Sunday.

Almost all the streets are being torn up by nearby building construction. Three lane streets are now a single lane. Several drivers objected to my taking the entire lane in stop and go traffic. Strange thing is that I was going as fast as the traffic. I could have pretended to be a motorcycle and raced along the side the line of traffic, but I decided to be a car and stay in line. I guess no matter what I had done someone would have objected.
