That’s all.
Today there was construction on the road and a ton of cars were stuck.
Then whenever there is an event at a nearby park I zoom on by them as all the cars get stuck.
Just realized how overly pleased I was when the person stopped all the cars, and I just was like… oh look, nothing is being done in my lane.
EDIT: Oh and I can get to my closet grocery store faster than a car by cutting through a parking lot cars can’t get into simply because doing so avoids having to do a left turn onto a super busy road. Joyful, every time. More traffic at that light, the better I feel.
Glad to hear others are as petty as me!
I love this. But in a crowded spot, do remember to be very prudent. Pedestrians and turning cars often take halted traffic as an invitation to cross the bike lane without looking.
Good point! During the event near the park it’s probably more accurate that I go the same speed as the cars, because people have to park on all the side streets and walk to the park.
Me on my bike going slower than cars: Of course cars are faster, that was never in doubt. There are a lot of other reasons I choose to ride a bike.
me on my bike going faster than cars: So long, suckers!
“They’re paying a lot more than me in every single way, their one advantage is speed.”
“hahaha how does it feel to be paying $800 a month in car expenses to go slower than ME!”
You should have seen the smile on my face when they opened the bus lane on my school bus route last year
Ooh that’s the good stuff! Especially when they get their own light. Lights up the pleasure center of my brain when we get to zoom through when everyone else is waiting on a light.
Passing traffic is cool, but have you tried never worrying about parking?
Same.
