I finally have half a moment to post a photo from my brother’s wedding this summer. We were enjoying a sunny afternoon in downtown Boulder when MyHandleBar rolled into town. This thing looked like so much fun I went running over with my niece and her grandpa (my sister’s father-in-law, is there a name for our relationship?) Here they are for scale as we checked this thing out:

It is a mobile bicycle bar, with one driver and everyone else literally saddled up to the bar.

The geometry of the cockpit is “relaxed”, to say the least. They need 3 people minimum, if I remember correctly, and can take on more than will have pedals. The slope of your hill can’t exceed 5 or 6%, but given those constraints it looked like a blast. Maybe someday Harpoon will have one of these and we won’t have to ride Brewery to Brewery, we can just bring the beer along!

I am sure there is a treasure trove out there on the internet, but a quick Google search did not turn it up…

So this morning I left Future Cyclist with his nanny and got on my bike to head to work. Very first stoplight a cyclist pulls in about 2 cm from my shoulder. YIKES! I startled, and all I could think to say was “oh, hi.” Later he passed me at the next red light, and then I very loudly said “On your left!” as I dropped him on the bridge.

Always too late at this sort of thing I thought later that what I wished I’d said was something more like “I don’t usually let a man get this close to me ’till I’ve got his phone number” or something like that.

Witty people, or people with better Googling skills, what could we be saying in these situations, something that indicates no-harm-done but next time say something!?
