2) A cyclist - a legitimate one in racing cyclist gear - riding along with a cigarette dangling from his lips. (How can one be at once concerned with fitness and health and be a smoker?)
3) While in slow-moving traffic due to road construction, I passed a fellow on the side of the road in a motorized wheelchair. Traffic slowed further and he tootled along - and passed me. By the time traffic moved again, he had ridden off into the sunset.
I was rather floored the other day when I saw someone who had approached me about voice lessons (and had apparently been taking lessons for quite some time previously) walking past with a cigarette in his mouth. I almost asked him about it, but decided that I didn't want him as a student, anyway, and that I'd rather not remind him of the acquaintance!
