Train!


Yesterday, I rode on my road bike from the campground, and did an out-and-back ride on the Glacial Drumlin Trail. At the far end, I crossed the tracks to see the bridge, then I heard the train. Freight, of course, and no way was I going to get in front of it (when I could see it) with my bike shoes on to cross back to the trail. LONG story short, I went on one of the cars to get across it once it STOPPED on the trail. Such a rush (even though it was totally safe and stopped)!!! My way back was so much faster than the way out because of the adrenaline! Here's a picture of the train once it started moving again (after I helped three other bikers across).
