    Fortunately my ride is mostly east-west so I don't notice it so much. But for the few short blocks where I'm heading north in Boulder, it got my attention.

    "A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self- preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

    wasn't that bad on 25 south but the on ramp to 470 west was a bit blustery. Nothing like getting broadsided by a couple of gusts of wind when your leaning off the bike...

    I come up over Lowell to Sheridan so I'm on an exposed hill all the way down to Anthem. The SUVdiot in the right lane was in the left then right then as I started to pass, he was heading my way again.

    From Lafayette up to Pike in Longmont, the wind was awesome. Especially over the combed concrete
