You See the Strangest Wildlife on the Trail
2 Dec
Quick 20 mile spin around The Ranch today under some pretty ideal weather conditions (overcast and 60). Made decent time out and back at just over 20 miles under 2 hours.
I think I know what made up for the extra effort though. Generally speaking I always have one of two creatures on my mind while mountain biking–rattle snakes (and all snakes are rattle snakes to me) and any hungry/bored/angry cat larger than your average house cat. But today’s surprise wild-life spotting was human. And not just any human. A buck-naked trail runner. At least I assume that’s what he was doing. No water bottle. No shorts. No t-shirt. Just all his business and a pair of running shoes. I say a real man runs naked with no shoes either.
I didn’t know if I should ask him if he needed help, haul ass off the trail, laugh at him or what. I landed on hauling ass and getting out of dodge before it got any closer to becoming a Twilight Zone episode.
So, today’s coolest wildlife sighting: Naked Humanoid.
