listen whenever you can. I So, I'm on the Brushy
Creek Trail Saturday morning. It is packed, man, the trail
is packed. There was a five K of some kind
(00:56):
going on. It was one of those pink ribbon runs,
you know what I mean. It was a I was
for breast cancer, I believe, and so there's a lot
of people out there, but it didn't take up the
entire trail.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
There was a turnaround for people.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
So for a small area it was really crowded, but
for the rest of it it was it was pretty crowded.
And I should preface this by saying I have and
JB You're probably not gonna like hearing this, but I
have grown a intolerance for the cyclists on the trail.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
I'm sorry, the non well behaved, the non not all
of them.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Right.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
One bed ruins it for the for the whole group,
because they're just going zooming by you and you can't
hear them coming, you know what I mean. They just
zoom by you and they're going really fast. Anyway, So
we're on the trail, it's pretty crowded. We're kind of
maneuve on our way through them with my buddy David,
and he's got his two big Bernie Mountain dogs that
(01:52):
were walking who you can't go twenty yards without someone
stopping wanting to pet the dogs. Are Finally, like David,
we gotta leave the dogs at home every.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Once in a while.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
We can actually walk, so we can actually walk right,
and people are taking pictures with these dogs, and it's anyway,
so we're we're on or we're walking. David's in front
of me, dogs are next to him. And this guy
comes up on his mountain bike. He's an older guy
and he's probably my age, comes up and just slams
on his brakes. He goes, you guys are pretty wide
right here, and David, my buddy, I was super impressed
(02:23):
with him, without missing a beat, he goes, well, you
guys ought to be on the trails anyway, just like that, and.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
If he's on a mountain, yes, right exactly. And I
was impressed.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Yeah, little attracted to David right now, I can't lie.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
And then they start pedaling off and the next guy,
there's three of them in a single file line, and
the and the next guy just said, whytn's to show
some common courtesy, and I said, why don't you read
the effing signs? And because there's the cyclists are supposed
to yield to the pedestrians, pedestrians. Pedestrians have the rightways,
like why don't you read that signs right at him,
(03:01):
And then so then the third guy comes up and
he slows down and I say, you just keep going.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
Oh you do not? I say, you just you just
keep going. You do not want anything that's happening right here?
You keep going.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Oh, Sandy, you're gonna get so lucky tonight.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
And he kept going.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
And that's when the guy in the front, who is
now far away enough and on a bicycle that I
couldn't catch him, yelled something else. And I kept saying, David,
Oh my god, I hope they turn around. Please please
let them turn around, come back and do it. And
then I'm walking. Two minutes later, I'm coming off from like, Sandy,
what are you seeing? You're a fifty seven year old girl. Man,
you don't want to be fighting anybody. What is wrong
(03:39):
with you? Here'll fight where you're this at.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
You want to see guys in their fifties fighting, just
search golfs on YouTube.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Sandy, though, I think that song I'm not as good
as I once was, I'm as good once as I
ever was.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I think that's you.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
That's my theme.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
So I think you could have done some big stuff
on that trail if you had to.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
And I'm gonna beat up some guy and his cycling
kit and a helmet, right, It's just not a not
a great look.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
Okay, that's right. What's that Jimmy.
Speaker 5 (04:10):
Here's my take on it as a as a regular cyclist,
and I was a bike racer. I'm an amateur bike racer.
Not great, but I've been doing it forever. I've been
riding bikes around Austin for twenty five years plus.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
On the trails.
Speaker 5 (04:25):
That is a connector, right, They're either trying to get
off road or onto other roads. It's a connector. Pedestrians
have the rideaway. Walkers have the ride away now, especially
when someone say you have you have the two dogs, right,
it's two dogs. So I always view that as that's
my responsibility to slow down and go around somebody. Two
(04:49):
people and two dogs. That's that's a lot. They were
putting it on you.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
To say that, and they had not done that on
your left. There was no heads up, which most of
the cyclists will do that and you immediate squnch scrunch
over for him.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
These guys did it.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
So that's the other side of it.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
So, so if someone has dogs, kids, kids are unpredictable, right,
you got to slow down and give them the courtesy
and go around it. And if and then the other
part of it is. It's on the the the walkers
to just stay to the right.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
I don't.
Speaker 5 (05:23):
I don't want to say I'm on your left every
time I go buy somebody. But I also just use
the trail as a connector to get out of town
or whatever it is.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
But on this JB I counted the other day, I
saw the same guy five times just going back and
the path.
Speaker 5 (05:38):
I'm like, dude, oh that was his workout? Was the trail? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I don't know. Yeah, I know, but I don't.
Speaker 3 (05:45):
I don't.
Speaker 5 (05:46):
I you know, I don't feel like I have to
say oh, on your left to everyone, like just stay
to the right. I've been riding bikes a lot. I'm
not gonna get you. I'm reading the room right right yea.
But yeah, if it's kids, dogs, I slow down. I
just they're unpredictably.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Because it's not like that's a that cut through or
connector is a huge part of your training, right like me,
it's not.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
I get it.
Speaker 5 (06:13):
But it's also like for the for the pedestrians on
the trail, you should always assume someone might be going
by you on your left. When people just turn and
start going left without looking that's stupid. That's it's like
it's it's like my daughter loves to surf. You never
turn your back on the waves. Right ever, it's the
(06:34):
same thing, right But yeah, they're cyclists, are they? Some
of those bad apples just ruin it for you.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
I tell you something that i've you know, I've been
using that trail for In fact, i read where was
it on my Strava It was the fiftieth day in
fact that walks out. It was the fiftieth time this
year that I've walked that trail. And what I've noticed
is I'm really grateful who for whoever idea it is

last twenty five years, you know what I mean, But

Oh they did it while it was opened.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
Oh god, just stampeded it like they do to the
jewelers sometimes with ham Yeah.

the cases, and they got the woman that was married
to Napoleon got her Tierra. Woh, and a bunch of
other jewels from the Napoleon and who doesn't want but
their pricess. They were like, and the French people are
all upset about it. You know, like, can't we even
(12:15):
defend that, you know.
Speaker 6 (12:20):
No, because they're too busy smoking and eating geese, Like
we can't even defend our own national or jewels.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
You know that they probably stole from someone else, right,
probably good art heist, though, a clever art heist.
Speaker 3 (12:35):
I am on the thieves side, on.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
The thieves side, but you know what I switched over.
I think we talked about this. A few weeks ago.
A jewelry store thieves ran in, bashed it, the guy,
the owner security system, the door automatically locks, and then
the whole place filled up with smoke.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
That's good, So they were just oriented. I watched them.

Speaker 5 (13:08):
It's it's sometimes it's it's bad, it takes it too
far and this you would love this, sandy like. So
they they set up a fake like box truck full
of stuff. It looks like there's electronics in it or something,
and they leave it open and like like it's unattended,
and they wait for some would be thief who's tempted
(13:31):
to jump in and try to take something. When they
jump in to take something, they shut the back door.
There's cameras everywhere, and they hand the would be thief
a pair of boxing gloves. Wow, and they have to
fight their way out to get out.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
It's awesome.
