Thank you...

...to the nice guy in the BMW suv who stopped to see if I needed help while fixing the flat tire on my bike on the side of the road yesterday.

I was able to sneak out in the late afternoon and only rode in the ungodly cold because the weather is supposed to get worse over the next week. Of course, I flatted about 10 miles from home in Hunting Valley at the corner of Shaker and Chagrin River. My hands nearly froze off, but I successfully changed the tube.

In all of my years of cycling, I don't think any motorist has ever stopped to see if I needed help when I was tending to a mechanical at the side of the road.

Thank you, anonymous dude in BMW suv.
