A-Mountain Can Be Interesting During the Mornings

I tend to bike A-mountain every other morning before I go to work. However, last Thursday as I was nearing the top, I was approached by police officer on a bike. He told me there had been complaints regarding bicyclist who exceed the 15 mile per hour speed limit on their way down the mountain. I though this was hilarious. But he told me that if the complaints continued a squad car would have to be dispatched to help patrol the mountain during the morning. So, if you happen to bike A-mountain be careful not to go over the speed limit. Yes, I know this seems like a joke, but it is your tax dollars at work.

    I can see I'm going to have to have my bike mechanic put a cruise control apparatus on :-) Jeez.

    Hey Douglas - thanks for the advisory. I say, don't knock it until you try it. The ride up is merely the suffering for the reward of flying down. I'm not going to give that up. They can ticket me, but they will have to catch me first!! ;-)

    Don't slam into the gate on the way down, like I almost did the first time down one morning.
