Over the weekend I was riding my bike to my cousins house to help install a motion light on his garage.
I was riding down the hiway, no oncoming traffic just one car behind me.
About half way there I noticed a buzzard in the other lane, and kind of got fixated on it.
When I was about 100' away it took off flying the same direction I was taveling.
I kept watching it, when I was half way to it, and it was a few feet off the ground I noticed it had a huge snake hanging beneath it.
About the same time I was about to pass it, it veered towards my lane just a few feet above me and I had to ride under it.
I couldnt concentrate on anything except that birds feet hanging onto its dinner lol.
My reflexes kicked in, I was accidentally moving all over the bike, scootin to the side trying to stay out of its path.
I felt like I was sitting on the pegs looking up at it, and even remember thinking (Im jumping off if it lets go of the snake) lol.
I had to look ridiculous, but when facing a traumatized snake, Id probably rather total my bike and dive towards the ditch lol.
