There's just too much going on for most people to be that oblivious. Don't actually see much texting either- I'm totally sure that's because of the law against it ;) <br />Presumably the thruway is a limited access highway? no bikes or peds?<br /><br />I'd rather have someone brushing their teeth or putting on lipstick (I do this all the time without looking, so I'm not sure how distracting it is) than texting or talking on the phone.cyclerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10331461189944538729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356723782465446786.post-55703912839818026282012-01-10T16:53:06.665-05:002012-01-10T16:53:06.665-05:00Urban legend, you should take a ride on the NYS Th...Urban legend, you should take a ride on the NYS Thruway sometime, people reading the newspaper, brushing their teeth, putting on lipstick, etc...<br />All of this at 65+ mphLuke Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06105214666982339796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356723782465446786.post-23533448769449061972012-01-10T16:10:44.270-05:002012-01-10T16:10:44.270-05:00I would love to be there at the Arlington Town mee...I would love to be there at the Arlington Town meeting but I feel sick and have to stay home.

I could feel my rear wheel losing traction on most of my starts, and saw one poor fellow wipe out while making a left but he got up and kept going before I could arrive to see if he was ok. Most of it was fine by 9 though. Just needed some sun to thaw it out. <br /><br />Still, at least now it feels like a proper winter.Cris C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02310106858946379644noreply@blogger.com
