I was out for my afternoon jaunt and I was cycling up this here hill (yes, we do have them in Norfolk) and in front of me I heard what can only be described as the sound I imagine a duck would make if trying to lay an ostrich egg... this was accompanied by nuts raining down on the road in front of me. I looked up and there on a branch were two squirrels making the most obscene noises at me and throwing their nuts at me (oooh-err Missus...).
It's bad enough with the way some motorists endanger us but when the local wildlife enters into the fray, it's a bit bad

Thought I was going to get attacked by a badger Monday morning at 6 am on my offroad commute through the woods. Saw some eyes reflected up ahead, flicked on the 20W to see what it was and instead of running off in the opposite direction the aforementioned badger ran straight towards me before veering off about 20 feet infront of my front wheel on what I guess must have been its favourite path into the undergrowth.

I know people who've had accidents caused by badgers and by muntjac. Just because they're wildlife they think they own the countryside <grumble grumble>
Last night on a road section two tiny deer had a try, they had cat sized bodies but longer legs - so small we could've ridden over them without falling off, but we braked instinctively and they got away. I suppose they'd read in their Dingly Dell copy of the CTC runs list that we'd finished night rides for the season, so they thought they could come out and play! -- Sue ];(🙂
