The Morning 20 has already become the Morning Mundane. In an effort to spice things up I’ve decided to ride down the road a few extra miles to make a Morning 25. This new route has brought me back to our favorite named trail: Scheiße Creek, I mean, Hollow Creek Greenway.
I picked up the green way about midway in. You know, where the nose knows it’s getting close.
As I turned the corner, I found three bucks. Or maybe does. I don’t know. They didn’t stick around long enough for me to check. All I know is that I managed to sneak up on 3 deer. That’s not something easily done around here. Usually, they know I’m coming a mile away. Also, I thought I was pretty noisy, but something caught their attention.
Their hind legs were on the pavement and their front legs were on the side of a steep hill like. Their necks stretching and craned like they were cornering something.
As I turned the corner and came face to snout with this sight, we all paused for a second. The looks on their faces was priceless. It wasn’t a scared look. It was more a look of “Oh scheiße. I got caught with my hand in the cookie jar.”
Immediately, they turned around and took off in the other direction, scattering like crooks running away from the police.
The things I see on a bike…..
Pedal on!™
