Big week for drivers to run over small animals! Weather turned excellent and “bam”, tons of road-kill.
Best road-kill this week = grey fox
Worst road-kill this week = not sure what it was, but it was big!
Incidental, yet related accomplishment = finally wheelie’d all the way down “Windy Hill” (just over 1/4 mile) on my road bike. I’m pretty good at wheelies on a road bike (try it, it’s not that easy), but “Windy Hill” is a bomber descent!
All I have to bunny hop in Seattle are curbs and potholes in the road. That’s not as exciting.
Texas is world famous for the sheer volume of dead creatures littering our roads, only surpassed by some remote regions of Australia and Kazakhstan.
Our state animal is the lowly armadillo who’s sole purpose in life is to scurry under the wheels of approaching vehicles. I have even managed to run over smaller mammalian vermin on my bike (mainly squirrels and rabbits)!
I invite you to abandon the potholes and curbs of your homeland and partake in some higher-stakes two-wheeled aerial fight! Come to Texas and you will be rewarded with a plethora of flattened creatures to jump your bike over.
Hop On!
