Biker Week

I also notice this frightening habit motorcyclists seem to have, and it scares me to death. The Boulevard is where I notice it most, and it's especially nerve-wracking there, when you come around the curves of the road, and the pegs and handlebars of a motorcycle are clearly in your lane - invariably it happens at the worst possible spots, with little or no room for movement toward the right. My heart is always in my throat when that happens. This is not a bike week phenomenon either - it's a season-long problem. These same drivers are very well behaved anytime there is a police officer in the area of course, so there's little chance that the problem can be resolved - until enough of them get hurt as a result, I suppose.
