Mad Max, if Mel Gibson had been from Amsterdam

There's a very smart grid of bike lanes in Portland. To get from my apartment to my yoga studio, I follow a major bike lane that crosses the river over the Hawthorne Bridge and heads south east. At 5:30 pm, I sit at a red light with 12 other bicyclists.

I tried to explain this to the boyfriend, about all these cyclists heading home from work or to the yoga studio.

He quietly replied, "You mean, it's like the future?"

He defends tomorrow. Wish him luck.
