Huh?

Chris

I think this was a reference to the use of the word incredible. Do you
remember the "Incredible Hulk" who turned into a green monster at certain
times?

Beverly, I think you are a natural-born translator. I never would have come to that
conclusion, but now it makes perfect sense! I must admit I got a fit of the giggles
reading the post and Chris' response (which mirrored mine). I thought "hangry" was a
typo for "hungry" and couldn't figure it out for the life of me. BTW, did you do your
stint as bike leader yet? I can't remember when that was scheduled for!

Yes. I was the ride leader a week ago and I received positive feedback from
the senior patrolmen. It was fun and I'm looking forward to doing it again.
I managed to get the ride started on time, participants counted, trail rules
explained and I lost no one on the rideg Of course I had lots of help
and directions from the senior members.

That is great! How long of a ride (distance and/or time?)

We had a hairy experience last Sunday (not yesterday) when my bike fell off the car
on the freeway and we didn't notice it for at least 2 miles -- good ending, though --
three people stopped to tell us where it was and other than needing a tune-up and
being pretty scratched up, the bike is OK. Thank God it didn't fly through someone's
windshield. I still think someone (perhaps one of the rowdy young boys at the Dairy
Mart when we stopped) deliberately undid the latches on the bike rack, because it's
physically impossible for them to get undone themselves -- we tried all sorts of
methods to recreate what might have happened and we couldn't get the latches undone
despite any amount of deliberate shaking, etc. Anyway, the worst part of the day was
when BF fell in the middle of a four-lane highway we had to cross -- it was just bad
luck and bad timing but he ended up OK despite a bruised wrist, sore shoulder and
badly skinned knee. This past weekend was disaster-free, thank God! (Though Thursday
I came back to the car after a 20-mile ride and found that the car tire was flat.
Someone nice put the "doughnut" tire on, though, and so it was another happy ending.)

It was a 16 mile ride. Most of the rides are 12-20 miles in distance. We
have a variety of riders with different levels of experience.

It sounds like someone tampered with the bike rack. I've never had a bike
come loose on mine. My bikes have probably seen as many miles on the rack
as they have on the roadg I've hauled them to NY, Missouri, Virginia,
etc.

I hope you don't have another weekend like that one!

I'll be out biking tomorrow. My company gives us two days off each year to
do volunteer work in the community. My bike patrol qualifies as volunteer
work! I'm joining some of the senior members for a PB (Panera Bread) ride
then we'll head to a neighboring county to do some riding there. I've been
checking out their website today so I can make a wise (or at least not so
damaging) choice for breakfastg
