Signs may be misleading
Posted on November 5th, 2007 3 commentsAlright, so this should have been the coolest thing I have ever seen in my life. I mean, seriously, it says “this stretch of road is made for Scott”. Well, let me break it down for you. The first thing wrong is it is not a road. Now, at lunch, on a little known bike path, it’s really not a busy and the path factor is minimized… I don’t at any time feel i endangered any other humans, I didn’t even see any humans…, however I feel that the good folx in the Cobb County path planning commission tried to kill me! (Well, not literally).
So bust a move rolling easy, but quick. Come around a corner and some chucklehead decided it was a good idea to put in a series of moguls! Yeah, bike path moguls. I got my over-sized arse airborne on the first one and grabbed a fist full of brakes before the second. It almost made me drop some kids off in my pants! Seriously what were they thinking? No warning “Speed Moguls Ahead”… I guess the moral of the story is don’t celebrate caution signs.
Ultimately, it all turned well. I went down… cruised around a bit and enjoyed the ride. I did some off road riding… on my road bike. It was fun! The path is too short for regular riding at lunch, but now I know where it goes.
