I heard on our local news media how there are so many traffic accidents right after the SuperBowl.
Almost scared me off, too. But it didn't. <w>

I've also heard how Friday PM rush hours are a bad time, too.

IME, in Vancouver, it's when the bars & nightclubs close that we've gotta really watch out. A couple
of hours after that, and it's the most peaceful, wonderful, magical time.

cheers, Tom

I did a 66-mile ride Sunday. I, too, was a little concerned about how many drunks there would be
out, but I figured it was pretty safe that the dangerous period would be AFTER the game.

It was great. You could start seeing the roads clearing out by around
4:30 or 5. There was a little bit of fast traffic right before the start of the game, probably folks
who were afraid they'd miss the kickoff, but then the streets were deserted.

Fortunately, I was back home by around 7:30.

There was a game? [1]

It was a nice and sunny out for a bit, so I took it as a sign to take a short ride around the lake.
Traffic was nice, there was some nice scenery [2], and no discourteous people on the road.

After I got back, my wife was acting freaky [3], so I said unto her "Go Forth and have Sushi, take a
book to comfort thee!" I just hung about with my daughter cooking dinner and capering like an insane
gibbon for her. When my wife came back from her alone time, she was much happier.

[1] I'm mostly serious. Mostly.
[2] Sunlight glinting off the water, rainbows, that sort of thing.
[3] Our small child was very demanding Sunday. [4]
[4] Cute though.
