• Mind shift.

  I don't expect those who have never led a newbie ride, those who ride as individuals in a pack of fifty riders, who understand only in the head the importance of volunteer, to really know know how much it irritates me when I have to stick to the responsibility I have chosen.  Would I prefer to be doing my own training?  Of course.  Would I prefer to ride with the faster group?  Of course.  Would I prefer to do something better with my time than stand 6 hours in the hot sun or the rain?  Of course.

  The world could be a better place if the same people who rush to the entrance of MRTs before the train has stopped are not also the ones who walk the slowest, the ones who walk six in a row in the same direction and glare back when you bump into them while you trying to get past them are not also the ones who don't even attempt to make way when you do, yada yada yada.  I could go on but life would really be a better place if people think with their head, or better still, think with their hearts.
