I did a two-hour plus straightforward cruise yesterday, in nice climate. Out and again on Coyote Creek path to the place it’s flooded out from the current rains, then South in direction of Gilroy on the calmly traveled nation roads on the east facet of the valley. Throughout my warm-up I had a psychological lapse and nearly rode into the again of a parked trailer as a result of I used to be daydreaming as an alternative of watching the place I used to be going. I swerved and got here to a panic cease, however misplaced my steadiness and did a slow-motion fall. No hurt achieved. The cool half was that two separate drivers in pickup vans stopped to ensure I used to be OK. It’s good to be reminded there are many good individuals on this planet.
After I depart for my rides my spouse at all times say “have enjoyable, be further cautious” and I promise I’ll. I feel we’ll have to vary It to “further further cautious”. No extra daydreaming at 15 mph!
