Pump Station to South Mopac - Apr 17 2005

I had a good ride Sunday morning. I learned two important techniques I think I'll share:
1. When you see a low hanging oak tree...duck. I had a headache for half an hour.
2. When loosing your balance don't try to right yourself by planting your shoulder into a tree...I did this on purpose...why? It worked I guess.
3. Some joggers just don't like you.

This last one I learned after I came to a complete stop to let a runner have the right of way. I pulled way over, smiled big and said: "Good morning, great day isn't it". He gave me only what I can describe as...(sorry for this) a "dirty look". And I thought I would never use the phrase dirty look in my entire life.

I went farther south in the GreenBelt than normal. I enjoy the north better I think.
