Pic is from last summer. I rode out to the big city, and once I got there I got stopped at a train crossing. It was close to 100 degrees out, so I hopped off my PX210 and took refuge in some shade. In the meantime some methhead pushed his shopping cart in the path of the locomotive. All his aluminum beer cans went EVERYWHERE in a loud cacophony. Because the shopping cart got ran over, the whole train had to stop and investigate what happened...which took an extra 10 minutes of waiting around for the train to pass.
