Chupacabra rule: if you look like a goat your in trouble.

If a loose dog is chasing you, you automatically get right of way until you pass a slower rider. then he is there problem.

I yielded to some walkers today and they stopped to ask about my Origin Eight Crawler and why the tires were so big.

I’m sure you had to consult each and every one of these rules while riding Mueller Park the other week. If there is a more crowded ride I can’t name it.

I’m reading this in a meeting and just laughed out loud. Oops.

I thought Strava got rid of downhill placings? I think it was because of this list. Er…the number of people dying while pursuing downhill KOMs.

The problem is that if we consult the rules while out on the trails most rides would either be .25 mi long or would take 10.3 hours to complete.

Here in Reno we get alot of rattlesnakes across the trail. We do not yield the trail for that would mean slowing down. Rather we speed up and bunny hop. Then, we try to really feel our legs so we can tell if that scratch we felt was caused by a sagebrush or a fang.

The aforementioned scenario applys to going downhill and flat lands only. I have not had the pleasure of rolling up on a rattler while going slowly uphill.

I think they feel the ground moving and get out of the way!

I did however come upon a cross between a scorpion and a spider that turned out to be a jerusalem cricket. I caught it and brought it home to the little ones in my water bottle.

For those who are visual learners, somebody should flow-chart the list.

And just so we’re clear, I told the someone — I’m not saying who — who demanded I post his modest proposal concerning canines that his mother chases parked cars.
