Well, here's something I've noticed in Chicago that I've never seen in Alabama. Do you see how nice they are to old people here? The elderly get special crossing signs and everything. And, these signs are everywhere. I've seen them on at least 3 different street corners. Now I can't help but wonder how bicyclists are treated. If Chicagoans don't honk incessantly at cyclists and resent their very presence on the road, I'll know that I'm in a very strange place indeed. We're a long way from home, Cassidy...a long way from home.
