I realize this sub is filled with stories like this, but it never happened to me. Until two days ago.

Was driving to Lowe’s about 6:30am and was foggy, heavily overcast, and not light yet. So I’m about 6 blocks away and the avenue cuts through a neighborhood before reaching the commercial district and Lowe’s. Well I passed this guy on a bike and he was all in black with a black hoodie pulled over his head, and his bike was black and I took note of him because he seemed odd… for one he didn’t seem to be riding with any purpose, whereas usually people riding a bike in a street are booking along to get where they’re going… but he was going so slow he could barely keep the bike upright… just sort of barely going along like he didn’t really have a destination, AND it was foggy and cold and wet and dark… an odd time to be out on a bike in no apparent hurry to get anywhere. AND with no lights on the bike.

So took note as I passed him but Lowe’s was only moments away cause was going 25-30mph and was just 6 blocks or so up on the left… and I turn into the driveway… and there is that same guy ahead of me, on his bike in the parking lot!!! He’s was sitting on his bike with one leg down (facing away from me so never saw his face) but here again, he was not by the doors and had no reason to be sitting where he was… and how the HELL did he get there when I just passed him 6 blocks ago! I had no signals or stop signs and there was no way he beat me there. And there was not two people dressed exactly alike, with the same build and the same bike, in the fog in the dark at 6:30am when almost no one is even out! It was absolutely 100% him.
