Seriously, what is it with dickhead drivers who scold riders for "owning the road?" They get all hot about how fast I go (yeah, me, fast.) And then tailgate me. If I slow down then they get pissed because in going too slow. So which is it a-hole? I'm going 10 over already, then you... Continue Reading →
A Day Like Any Other

Good Friday 2018-ACH
