Don't feel obligated to reply to this post...I just need to vent. Went for my obligatory early Sunday morning ride this morning. I just moved back to Washington DC and decided to head up the canal road and find myself somewhere near Potomac MD for breakfast. I am innately aware of the morning habits of our hoofed nemesis and keep a close eye out. (I had 13 separate instances of deer running in front of me while on my way to the international rally last month on Skyline drive at 6am.) So this morning, I am on a portion of the road that is two lane, divided, and saw an opportunity to allow this cab to pass since he had been following too closely for miles. He nearly took the bait, switched to the left lane and sped up...but remained behind, even closer, with two wheels in my lane and two in the left. As the road merged back to one lane I sped up enough to put distance between us...clearly this dude was not awake yet this morning. Shortly afterwords, I see the hind legs of a deer sticking out of the brush. I brake and slow to a ~15/20mph and scan for his friends. Guess who comes flying up behind me BLARING ON HIS HORN? You guessed it, nimrod the cabby. I pull to the side to avoid being rear ended and end up 1 foot from this deer who remains there long enough for me to point him out to the cab driver. (I am not sure if you can convey anger with pointing alone...but I made an effort.)
MmmMmm Coffee.
