Test of the true cyclist: what caught your attention more: the bike or the rider?
That happened to me once and I’m proud to say that I passed with flying colors. I was driving North on Golf Course Road to Southern Blvd to my mother’s house in Rio Rancho after picking up my sister at the airport. We passed a blonde woman riding a steel road bike, and I immediately swiveled eyes hard right. My sister chided me for my lasciviousness, but I was really looking at the bike. Swear to God! (That is true, for the record.) Also for the record, since Chris Young (Platypus and Clem) has been organizing ABQ Rivendell/steel bike rides, I think I’ve seen most of the Rivendells in our area; but I met longtime Riv Rider John Fellows on our main bike path — John, we will get together for a ride some day; hope to see you on the 2/7 ride.
