I had today off. Being military sometimes we get Friday off when Monday is a federal holiday. So seeing I had time to myself (wife working today) I went on a solo ride to hit some twisties and some back country roads. After about 120 great miles I'm approaching an intersection. Cross traffic has the flashing red light and I have the flashing yellow light. I blow through the intersection and think to myself, "I haven't been down that road yet". So I pull into a church parking lot and pull a U turn and head back to the intersection. I put on my left turn signal as I near the intersection, and just when I about to make the turn some old farmer in a pickup truck blows through the red light from the left. I lock my brakes and stop about 4 feet from his passenger door and he looks at me like I'm fucked up. The whole rest of my ride I spent trying not to be pissed. Well there is always tomorrow. I'll drink a few beers and forget about it. Stay safe out there people.
