Frisbee Golfers...though I see them every ride as I ride through two connected frisbee golf parks in the trail by my house.

Also saw the Indian Mound at Fillipe park...its where we ride to before turning around.

.a person walking a dog sporting "male pattern baldness", but when I took a closer look the person had wide hips and bre@sts ! Whoa...it took a few seconds for that one to compute!
So, was it the dog or person with "Male Pattern Baldness"? Inquiring minds want to know...

I saw a sharp shinned hawk sitting on a fence post giving me the eye as I rode by. Saw some snakes making their way cross the road, a really neat dog (had the bandanna and the little doggie backpack) in the back of a pickup "WHOOFFED" at me, but he had a big doggie grin, and I chased the pickup for a while. I could see the guy in the front in his mirror, he was looking at me and laughing almost as hard as I was. Might be the first time that a dog in a car got chased by a guy on a bike.

I stopped at the local park, there was a festival, had a polish with the works, some fresh lemonaide, and watched the cute girls walking down the riverwalk. It's nice to be a dirty old man.

Got chased by a moose once. I almost got ran over by a whitetail deer last week. It jumped across the trail about 5 feet in front of me.

On yesterday's ride around the 9000 foot elevation hunter's road on Mauna Kea I saw: Lots of birds, including the usual quail, frankolin, and little tweety birds. 8 feral pigs squealing and grunting at my intrusion. 2 loose big dogs who I steered clear of. A patch of small silverswords planted near the road, with little number tags. Lots of mountainside scenery. Infinite amounts of dust. No stinking people!

I saw red when someone made me mad, I saw green when I envied another biker,
and I saw a great big smile when my friend surprised me on the trail and rode with me.

I saw a mother deer leading three really tiny fawns, each no more than 24" tall, across the road. I had to slow down to let them go across.

I also saw a woman driving a Blazer pulling out of a parking lot, but unfortunately, she did not see me until she had already pulled out in front of me and I had locked both wheels on wet pavement to avoid hitting her.

Didn't see any one else on two wheels, guess the wind kept them indoors. Lots of male cardinals darting along the roadside, bright red streaks. A few shetland ponies, meanest animals on the planet. The usual dogs chasing me. Oh yeah and 4 Llamas.
