Just got back from what would have been an outstanding ride of around 150 miles on one of the local favorite twitsty roads today. Outstanding if a ground squirrel hadn't decided to dart in front of my bike without warning and took a full front wheel to the mid section. I only had time to grab the front brake to try and slow down enough to let the little critter squeek by but to no avail. Dead center and on to the pasture in the sky. All kidding aside, I love animals and it really upset me to the point that I wasn't sure I could reverse my route and go back the same way. Why is it that there'll be no wildlife for 500 yds. in front of you until the last moment and then those crazy dopes decide to play chicken with 'ya?
On the upside, the turkey that decided to cross the road in front of me thought better of the idea and turned around before I had dinner mounted on the front of my bike..
Damn squirrels....RIP..
