As I biked on a quiet, tree lined, bike pathed, street on my way in this morning, I saw a fellow cyclist approaching. Its nice to see others and I will usually wave or smile. Infact, on my short commute, there are more and more each day.
I always check to see if it's one of us- the Bike2Work crew- and try to check out their "ride". This man wasn't one of us, but I still smiled and was forging ahead.
Then he yells out:
"NICE SADDLE-BAGS!"
And my first instinct is to yell back:
" I KNOW!!"
and since it was too early, I had no filter, and no caffeine, that's exactly what I did!
I can only hope and assume that he meant my awesome Panniers from Ziggy's, but......
Yes this is a true story!
