With me, not only am I looking for potential hazards, threats, etc., but
I AM the threat. My Pug weighs 30+ pounds and is made of steel, and I weigh 240+ pounds with all my gear. That's near three hundred pounds of steel, muscle and skeleton coming straight for ya! Watch out! You sure don't want to get hit by me! I pedal as fast as I can most of the time and I am just
flying! and having the good time of my life.
Especially if I'm high!. If no one on the trails tells me at least once to
"slow down!" or if at least three walkers hikers or bikers aren't overtaken by surprise and jump out of their skin as I pass--I haven't had a good drive. Terror cycling! Yeah!
