The weather was overcast with a light breeze, but it was still rather hot.  I was hoping that getting back into the normal riding routine would possibly help me shake the bronchial spasms that have been bugging me after I got over a cold.  Other than a few coughing fits and a touch of a runny nose, my standard training loop went normally.  My \u00e2\u20ac\u0153seat contact areas\u00e2\u20ac\u009d were still sore from this past Sunday\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s ride, but I felt back on the game breathing and power-wise.  The <em>herd<\/em> was out today, and again blocked up the works.  They were a whirlpool of random movement across the whole width of the roadway.  As I passed them head on, riding on the right side of the road as per the standard practices of road traffic in the United States of America, one <em>bikecow<\/em> just rode toward me on the wrong side of the road with a blank look on her face.  Like a deer caught in the headlights, she didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t yield back onto her side of the road and just stayed directly in front of me, even when I was about a bike length from hitting her head-on.  I had to move slightly toward the center of the road to avoid colliding with her.  Right-of-way or not, I avoided her as a matter of self-preservation: A collision with her would have definitely resulted in damage to my bike and person.
