Keep an eye out folks, and don't be afraid to hug that edge of tarmac on yer right. A couple o' days ago, I found out just how important that bit o' advice was, when the blade from an oversized bulldozer scraped my elbow as the semi upon which it was riding sped by be at 50+mph. Lucky for moi, the kind semi driver decided it was better to lay on the horn for the 2-300 yards he had between him and I, as he closed from behind, instead of doing something rash like applying brakes or summat.
I guess that law we have in AZ requiring drivers to give cyclists 3ft doesn't apply to buttheads who are in a hurry and driving semis with oversized loads. I am glad, though, that he didn't take that extra 1/8-1/4" 'cuz I really like my left elbow as it is, thank you.
