Tourists

Rick and I naively thought we left really silly tourists behind in Vail. We did leave the Texas tourists who vacation at 9000ft, start drinking at lunch on the ski slopes, then have their very unsurprising heart attack and are sped down the mountain by ski patrol. We also left behind all the round-abouts (aka rotaries) and the tourist-induced near-misses and car accidents they cause. We now have a new variety that vacation at Colonial Williamsburg. I haven't quite nailed the stereotype yet, but Rick has experienced very un-Colorado tourist behavior.

Setup: Rick has meetings at various locations around the historic area, and rides his bike within the couple square mile area to these meetings. He wears suit pants and tie most days, and just ads a bike helmet for his intra-office commutes.

Behavior: He gets photographed by tourists on his short bike rides. Really. He was photographed twice on a 1 mile ride last week. These are tourists surrounded by an amazing recreation of Declaration of Independence American and they are taking pictures of Rick on his bicycle wearing a tie.
