Biking is a popular option on college campuses where distances are often just far enough to avoid walking, but not quite far enough to warrant a car. With the privilege of biking comes the following 10 thoughts at least once a week:

1.) This pedestrian better get off their phone.

If you're staring down at your phone while I'm trying not to navigate a crowded sidewalk, I'm not actually sorry for clipping you.

2.) Did that guy just try to pass me? I'm going to pass him back.

I go Lance Armstrong hard, but only when provoked.

3.) Excuse me, but you can wait to cross.

Call your senators, make this legislation: campus bikers deserve the right of way. Hashtag power to the pedal!!

4.) WHY ARE THERE PEOPLE WALKING IN THE BIKE LANE?!

Repeat after me: Bike lanes are for BIKES. Sidewalks are for WALKERS. If I wanted to go the pace of a walker, I would have walked! So please spare me the meandering. I have places to go, and would prefer an unobstructed path on the way there.

~believe~ that you look great.

6.) Please see me, Car.

Please. Please. Please. Please. My breaks aren't working. Please.

7.) It may not be today, may not be tomorrow- but at some point, that bus is definitely going to hit me.

They're big, fast, and mildly unpredictable. Meanwhile, I'm dumb. So collision is a probability.

8.) I hate hills.

9.) Wow, nevermind, I love hills.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

10.) Where do I put my bike?

All ze bike racks are full. Will this tree work, question mark (?)
