Comments: To work & back. Felt sluggish for first half going to work. Then stepped it up after break. Now quads are really sore. Hope they recover by Tour de Fire. Had near collision coming home. I was just about to overtake a driver when he slid into the bike lane. I assume he was going to park at the curb. I was doing about 15 mph and had to do a quick stop. I had my bright lights on and hit my horn. He STILL didn't see me!
