Consecutive bicycle work commute number 1017:
Took some vacation last week, so I didn't ride at all. Started going back to the office every day this week, and my legs are reminding me that I took a week off. Funny how fast that happens.
Had a driver intentionally close pass me on the way to the office this morning. They veered towards me so their passenger mirror was well inside of one foot from my left elbow. Then once they were ahead of me they resumed a normal lane position. Jerk. Thankfully I had my GoPro running and caught it on video. I contacted the police and shared a description of the vehicle along with the license plate, and offered to provide the video file. Hopefully something will come of it, if nothing else to get a police visit telling them "don't do that again."
