So what's the deal with chipmunks?
This time of year, when I'm on a paved rail trail, the little buggers seem to always dart out from the right side of the path, run right in front of my speeding bike, and turn around about 1 inch in front of my front wheel and return to the right side of the path. They are about the only critters I've seen get run over by bikes in any large numbers.
This does not seem like adaptive behavior on their part, so they must be relating to the bikes as if it were some predator--any idea what it might be, and why they want to do the turn-around so close to it?
