Please!!!!!

To all those people out there riding their bikes, please listen to this.

DON'T wear your headphones. If you must bring your iPod out on your ride, at least leave one ear free to hear what is going on around you. I appreciate the fact that you are out there on a long ride by yourself. So am I. It gets a little monotonous and you want something to take your mind off the lactic acid building up in your legs. But for crying out loud, at least be safe enough and aware enough of your surroundings so that you can hear what is going on around you.

If you are a one of those tourists out there riding over the Golden Gate, please realize that not everyone one wants to park on the Golden Gate. PLEASE, I am tired of almost going over the side because you are weaving back and forth and stopping short to admire the pretty view.

Thank you.
