I was on my way home from the gym and some shiny black car isn't stopping behind me at a light... It pulled up beside me, so I looked over to see if I needed to LEAVE, like NOW.
I look at the driver, and it's just some woman. And she's motioning to look at her kid in the back seat- who's about 6 or 7 and grinning like mad
SO I relaxed and opened my shield, and she says "My son loves bikes..." and I chat with the little guy till the light changes, blip the throttle, tell him to be careful, wear his gear, and have fun. While he's reciting the list of bikes he wants, the light changes. I said "Have a nice weekend" and did a little wheelie, leaving mommy's Jag and whatever was in the other lane far behind.
I was a good influence (mostly) today.
