Anyhoo, just recently got done helping shepherd an evening group ride, about 150 bicycles 10 miles around downtown.

I always bring up the rear with pump, flashlight, tools and spare tubes for the newbies. Plus I’m lit up like a Christmas tree and I’ll cover their back while trying to keep them from running into traffic or traffic from running into them.

....and if me or them get hit, it’s our fault for being out there on bicycles in the first place 🙂
