Driving east on SW Everett I stopped at the corner of SW Naito Parkway. There was a slight wind blowing and I saw a black plastic bag move along the sidewalk until it stopped under the rear of a bicycle that was pointed to go across Naito and turn north. The light turned for me to go and as I made the right hand turn I slowed down and tried to get the attention of the bike rider. I did so by pointing in the direction of his rear tire. He took one look at me and gave me the finger. I pointed again and again, each time with more emphasis at the rear tire, but he never turned his head in that direction. Instead he continued to give me the finger. Come-on now he was over 50. As I moved on I looked in the rear view mirror to see if the bag was stuck in the sprocket and spokes. Unfortunately, he rode on without it.
