Something you don't see every Day... (Shout out to Bellwood)

I'm tooling away only way to work this morning, and next thing I know, I'm stuck behind a street sweeper on the Prairie Path! That certainly put a smile in my face.

No picture?

If you ride the Major Taylor Trail on a weekday morning, you might encounter a sweeper there. I always make a point to thank the guys when I see them out there.

I tried for a picture, but he did a little detour to cross the street at 25th before I got my camera out. I then passed him, and tried for a picture on the west side of 25th, but was shooting into the sun and the picture didn't come out.

Bellwood (and occasionally even Maywood) will also run pickups down the trail to clear snow. It doesn't do a great job, but good enough that I still probably used the path on the majority of last winters commutes.

Very cool!

Damn that sun, always spoiling photo opportunities!
