Bikes: See my sig...

Went to physio this am which loosened things up nicely and went for a ride afterwards just to take a little loop...

Crossed the bridge at a good clip as there are few people on there at 11 in the morning and started my climb off the bridge which is a short but steep 12 percent grade and suddenly I hear these weird noises over the wind and for a moment thought I had snapped my frame in half as I must have had it dialled up to at least 400 watts.

Then I recognized the sound...

ka chick ka chick ka chick

I was thinking... not freaking way ! But then grandma pulls up next to me on her hopped up walker... I did not even know they made Zipps for these things and again... she gives me the look.

Was so distracted I did not see the porcupine step out in front of me and barely managed to bunny hop the spiny little criitter and when I looked up I see grandma cresting the hill and damn it if she did not flip me off.

I wonder is she has an E walker.

The ride back was fairly uneventful until I was nearing home and I saw a huge flock of what I thought were geese and then realized they were small flying pigs and below them was this Saab with a big assed dent in the passenger side. if you think bird crap is nasty you should see what pig crap dropped from 100 feet is like. And the smell... whoah.

There isn't enough washer fluid in the world to get that much crap off a Saab and think the owner must have had it coming to them.
