Funny story for the day -


Dude in the BMW has his cell phone glued to his ear.

He's cheating in the HOV lane - wants to pass the mass of traffic then sneak in at the end of the right-turn-only.

I move left to get a clearer helmet-cam shot of his phone glued to his ear. With the lights on my Harley and my blue helmet, I think he thought I was a cop and abandoned his left merge to pull over to the right...

Hmm this is an interesting and strange thread. Not sure what to make of it, but I do like the street eye candy. ;)
 
Not sure if those pictures above came out ok so re-posting (they get skewed by the ad)

This weekend was the turning point from pumps to long boots.

Another recent downtown fashion trend is bicycle helmets with flashing LEDs - red triangle at the rear and a white line at the front. I guess you really need that if you pop into traffic like this (and blindly into the open lane going north)

Stopping in at the mothership for some parts.

Not sure who filled-up before me, but it looks painful.

Sweet ride, unfortunately he's in the slow lane. My ID skills are lacking on this one...

Thought that this was a KTM at first... "Lord Ganesh is my co-pilot"

Do you ever honk at some of the street candy? I've seen some nice one's riding bicycles.

Another survivor from the 80's - and I wonder if that helmet is just as old...

The first time my lunch box fell off on the way home (to the side)

The second time it fell off the back luggage rack and I dragged it until some lady on the sidewalk waved me down...

Metric cruiser guy with a strip of red LEDs on his helmet. If you want to increase conspicuity, I'd suggest a light colored helmet like the vespa rider or GS rider below. I think the LEDs are a little tacky. Then again, an application of EL wire would be cool...

GS rider. Took me a while, but I finally got past you...

Just saw this one. You do realize that you're beside the guy in his lane, don't you?

Hiding for speeders or awaiting a collision call?

And just up the hwy, a collision -

Not sure why the steer-it/clear-it isn't being enforced here. Maybe whiplash?

A few riders still in the game -


Two up in the morning chill:
