Ride home for Friday, 17 March

Downtown Halifax was filled with drunken muppets... Any sign of green was pretty much a sign of trouble. The upside of the drunken muppets staggering around was that drivers were extremely paranoid, and a lot of them seemed to have gone home early. Once I got out of the downtown core, the roads were almost completely empty up until I hit Bayers Road, where there was a traffic jam tailing back from Bayers Road and Romans Ave to Bayers Road and Joseph Howe - less than a kilometre, but for Halifax it was quite a traffic jam. Since the traffic was stopped I split the lanes and rode down between the cars and caught the green light at Joe Howe - I don't know what the traffic jam was from but there was nothing on the other side of the lights, and after I got onto Central Ave the traffic was dead again...
