I suppose it could be when I went on a group ride but ended up riding home through the canyon alone because the group left me while I was refilling my water bottle. I couldn't catch them, so I slowed down and enjoyed the canyon.

Though I'm not a "Supporter" like you, he did say "have fun with it".

You know the more I think about it, though I've seen a few wierd things, my answer is very true. All the way from the dirtynecks to hoyty toyty BMW riders.
That's what makes riding fun.

Last year, had a Mama bear and her cub walk out in front of me. Also have had plenty of deer and wild turkeys. Plus a bunch of dogs. However, the bears take first prize.

1. Seeing a woman on the back seat of a Goldwing with her knitting out - just outside Peterborough.

2. Seeing a guy in Southern India riding his scooter with a telegraph pole balanced sideways across it. Everyone else just calmly drove off the road to get out of his way.

3. Nearly being speared by the sharp end of a huge cafe-table parasol. The wind had taken it into the air like a kite then dropped it. It hit the road about a foot behind my bike.
