If You Were Riding the Bicycle #7 - Lane Splitting

I'm curious what my North American friends will think of this... I'm almost 100% that riders from Europe and Asia etc will think it is fine, since lane splitting is common in a lot of places. It is decidedly uncommon where I live, though, and that means doing it is UNpredictable behaviour. Just the same, I would do what I did in the the video again without hesitation.

  

 

What would you do if you were riding the bicycle?

TARATS Entry #4

Just got another entry for the Third Annual Rantwick Autumn Tree Smackdown!

From Kenny's email:

Mr. Wick,

I took this picture just today at the CVS distribution center near my home in Fredericksburg, VA.

Since you like bikes, I leaned my large internet special on the trunk to add a sense of imposing scale.

Thank you and have a great day!

 

I mowed the lawn, helped Rantwick Jr. with a school project and made a truly kick-ass pot of chili today. That is good news because my chili has been strangely acidic the last couple of times, but this time it is spot on. I wish I knew what I did right, but I don't really follow a recipe.

 

Where was I? Oh, yeah, I know why I mentioned all that stuff! I was already having a great day, Kenny, so your tree entry has upgraded it to outstanding! That is almost unheard of with me on a Sunday, because I traditionally take Sundays to wallow in undeserved self-pity and feel generally bummed out. Leaning your bicycle on the trunk of your entry is also a common and welcomed approach in my tree competition, since bikes rock and trees rock and bikes and trees together really rock. I mean, check this out:

 

 

 

 

Uh huh. Oh yeah.
Thanks Kenny!
