  • Road Hazards

    So I'm riding to work today and the folks in front of me are going about 45 in a 55 so I swing over to the left lane and wouldn't you know it there's a friggen ladder on the road about 50 feet in front of me taking up pretty much the whole left lane except for about 3 feet of it along the left side. 3 feet was plenty of room especially since it was on the left side so I had some shoulder to play with but it certainly made my butt hole tighter for a while.

    Worst part was that it looked like a decent ladder and I could always use a new ladder. It was one of those aluminum extension ladders and I didn't see the truck it must have fell off of anywhere. Would have loved to stop and pick it up.

      I like the dog. If he can't eat it or f**k it, he pisses on it. I can get behind that

                    if you would have tied that down on your bike sideways, do you have any idea how many cases of beer you could haul on that??????

                      We had to cut all our aluminum ladders up and throw them in the scrap bin a few years ago. Fiberglass ladders are all that we allow. Government facility.

                        Close one George....I dodged a recliner on the freeway last summer....True story!!!! The road was on the way to the dump and the freeway patrol caught the culprit who lost it off the back of his flatbed dump truck...Very Close Call....
