You know how they tell you that you shouldn’t ride your bike through a puddle?

Because you never know if there will be a pothole, or debris, or nails, or aliens….

Because you might hit something and lose control of your bike, get nabbed by aliens….or at the very least get a flat tire on your way to work….

Most of the time you comply with this gem of knowledge but just once, now and then, you think…”Look a puddle….I ride this road every day and I don’t recall seeing a pothole there….or aliens!  I’m safe!”

And then you lose control of your bike or at the very least get a flat tire on your way to work….

DON’T RIDE YOUR BIKE THROUGH PUDDLES!!!

More on The Plague, Missed Shenanigans, something about a dead animal, my triumphant return to Beer & Bike and my love affair with spandex to follow.

Happy Friday Bike Winter!

The new two way bike lane on Dearborn looks a bit narrow!!!!
