It's now called 'dodging cars on the 101'

I remember now why I prefer riding in the spring, fall and winter. It's not just because the heat kills me...it's because there is a HUGE chance a car could kill me. The route I like to ride takes me through a few areas where cars park and pull out without really being able to see. There's so much action going on on the streets, sidewalks, etc that it's very chaotic and makes for a stressful ride. I suppose it's multiplied during the weekend in the middle of the afternoon too. I was shooting for a 35-50 mile ride but only got 16 in. I'll take it....It's so flippin' hot out there. I did see a bunch of pictures I want to take so I'm going to shower, eat and get out there with my camera :-) Happy Sunday!
