Yikes. Hope everyone is ok.

It does seem to be ass hat weekend with bikes tho. Driving down the 90/290 interchange about 7pm yesterday there was two black bikes riding together and the guy who was leading was in between two lanes cutting off cars with no warning. I watched him almost get clipped twice being a complete idiot and in that traffic, he was bound to be hit my at least 2 cars if he fell. I am surprised his friend let him ride like that. Its starting to get colder and cars are not looking for bikes as much. Dont make your last ride of the year the last ride of your life!
