Red bandeau & red wine out of the bottle because I live alone & I can.

My fellow cyclists:

If you participated in Chicago Winter Bike To Work day today please be careful. All my cyclist friends who are in places that are getting hit hard with this blizzard, ride safe.

I already witnessed one car on bike accident in Chicago today, be careful. Don’t forget your goggles and helmets!

the best high

Pretending you are the great Fausto (RIP), weaving between metal barriers in the loop, downtown Chicago when suddenly you find yourself side by side next two rush hour busses. The light ahead is green, but for how much longer? Then just like that you zing, you zag and BOOSH! You made it through the light, cutting sharply,  just barely missing the bus to your right.

I don’t understand why anyone needs to do drugs when you feel a rush like that on your bike. Then again, they probably don’t understand how exhilarating it is to be on your bike, pretending to be one of the greats, chasing cars. **Always wear your helmet, kids**

God. Fucking. Damnit. A Cyclists’ rant.

Dear: Rollerbladers, Runners, Walkers with tiny white dogs and the ever so distracting to you frappccino + mobile device  in hand, strollers with tiny dogs/babies in,

WHEN a cyclist says “On your left.” THEN that means a cyclist is approaching you ON YOUR LEFT. I’m generally really good at swerving past you. But when I get knocked into a bunch of rocks on the lakefront path and the rear tire which I just replaced a mere 3 days blows I get pissed. I don’t care about the pain the right side of my body in is. A new tube and rear tire isn’t particularly cheap.

So please, just pay attention. I may be going really fast, but I AM paying attention to you, I just can’t control whether you pay attention to me. Please and thanks. I need a fucking hug.
