I went on the freeway for the first time yesterday...only took me 13 months to get the courage.

That is all...

We got one where it was two lanes and there were very few cars...drove a few exits and traffic stops. That is when we got off the freeway and took the streets home.

Actually the part that scares me is the three lane and we did not get that far.

Actually yesterday was unusually busy all over town. There was a triathlon event going on and there were bicyclists EVERYWHERE!

And not just a few here and they...PACKS of 10+ taking up lanes.

It turned into a short ride.

That was actually why we hopped on the freeway. I am still trying to work on my lines on my favorite twisties and I was frustrated that I had to worry SO much about the bicyclists.

As long as they are riding single file I don't mind sharing the road. But when an SUV is coming towards me on the yellow because there are bikes taking up his lane I am OVER IT!

Sorry...did not mean to start ranting!
