Been behind the "wet" livestock truck, swarm of bees - twice last summer - b#*@#'s always sting me in my ear. Rolled over a snake a few years ago. I saw it, too late to swerve, I heard it slap under the bike. I turned around in time to see it slither into a ditch. However, the scariest was....
a herd of sheep! About 25 years ago, when I was wild and crazy, was crossing the Sierra's - one of the passes south of Tahoe. Probably doing 75+ on the twisties. It starts looking like the road is parting (like Moses parting the ocean) No, wait, chit my pants, it's a herd of sheep! Panic stop - almost hit a sheep just before I completely stop. All is ok- no damage. Sheep just keep milling around. But all is not ok. My legs are shaking, I need to sit a spell. My buddies that were behind me come riding up. They had slowed down, they had seen the sign "open range"!!! Lesson learned!
