    ....driving back from the Hash yesterday afternoon. =20

    Riding down the road is this guy on a Specialized bike with clips and =
    straps. Hmmm..

    I rolled down the window and asked what size feet he had. =20

    12

    Great! You want a pair of cycling shoes? I've got a pair I'll never =
    use. All ya gotta do is follow me...

    Well, turns out the shoes fit. I also donated a pair of Ritchey mtn =
    pedals to go with them.

    Gotta love the random acts of kindness...

    Turns out the guy bought the bike the day before and was thinking about =
    pedals and shoes and how stinkin' much they cost... Now, he's at least =
    got something decent to ride till he picks up something better. =20

    The girlfriend was inside taking a shower, so no gay jokes.
