Yesterday makes me remember why I love this state soooooo much. I went to Chris' house and he couldn't ride cause of some fuctard coming to his house to fix his furnace. So I helped him with a house pen and went off on my own. Did 17 and it was decent but a bit of traffic (odd for a wed midday). Went through moretown
then took a bunch of ass backwards roads to meet Caleb (DistordedVision here) after he got outta work. Went back to chris' and to middlebury, to bolton then to DV's house.
The most interesting part was going up the Bolton access road (DVs girlfriend works up there) at about 8:45 pm. I know the road pretty well and had all the lights on so I was moving. I come around a turn atabout 65/70, look up and see this mass in the road. I get on the brakes and start to downbshift but I am not slowing fast enough. I get on the rear harder and harder and I get closer and closer and end up locking it up. DV comes around the turn to see me fishailing all over the place. I finally come to a stop (and I shit you not - caleb will atest to this) 7-10 FEET from a fuckin mommy moose and her two little ones. If I had to shit it woulda come out. It looks at me and I look at it - it takes a few steps away from me ...I did the same. I thought the bitch was gonna come at me. Caleb stops next to me and I throw my glove at him and scramble to get the camera outta my pocket. I got it out but couldn'tg et it outta the case in time. They hopped the fince and were gone into the darkness. I was still shaking when i got to the top. I thought for sure that I was either gonna hit em or she was gonna charge once I stoipped. I contemplated (for just a sec) to gun it past them cause I didn't think that I was gonna stop in time. Decided that wasn't a good idea
It was BY FAR the scariest experience on the bike so far.....
