Hmm, I've heard of some really tacky incidents on popular bike trails
before ( http://bikeportland.org/2009/04/21/vandals-spread-hundreds-of-tacks-on-springwater-corridor-trail/
)...but an egging is really beyond me. A scare like that could
easily cause someone to lose control and crash, not to mention that
they were probably drunk enough to lose control of their own vehicle
and hit someone! I hope at least that the egg was easy to wash off. --

I don't believe this is related to the egging, but a few weeks ago I
was biking by Mendota Mental Health up by Warner Park and saw a
bunch of utility razor blades in the road. I collected 8 or 10 of
them. They were on the right side of the road where bikes would
seem to be the most likely target, although from the condition of
some of the broken blades I'm guessing they actually damaged more
car tires.
I was in Yellow Jersey just after and asked Andy Muzi if he'd heard
of any other such behavior ('cause Andy hears about dang near
everything sooner or later) and he had not. I've seen streaks of
broken glass appearing and re-appearing in certain bike lanes, but I
hadn't seen razors before.
