These can be quite tricky and unfortunately have been the causetive agent for more than one bicyclist crashing and ending up in hospital with severe hip and leg injuries. Thankfully you rode well and did not get caught up in them. Keep up your work on the OpenMapping project. I have moved onto Wine and am working on completing code submitted by another for a Windows 32 API function. Enjoy the weather. It has been as cold as -2 C here this Winter making cycling a challenge as it warms up to close to 20C during the day. Shawn:
