      Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

        Helped this little one across the road today. I think it would have come right up to me but I didn't think that was a good idea.

          Nice pic, Scott.

          Looks like that smooth, flat, gentle curve could be taken at a fairly fast pace.
          Glad it wasn't a bad ending for either of you.

            Fortunately I had just come off a side road so no chance to get to speed.

              Oh deer, bad ending for me, not sure about the deer. Bike seems to be fixable & I'll recover too.
              It appears the deer tried to run along side bike on right shoulder (which was overgrown with tall grass to fog line- county lagging on mowing), then decided to cross at an angle in front of my tire in a hasty poor judgement deer call.
              By the looks of my Helmet, the hind quarters locked the front brake lever & down I went. Came to flat on my back in ambulance.

                    Sh1t Carter. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
                    I hit one in the mid 90s. Road rash from the young and not experienced enough to know better pre agtatt days. And young enough to bounce and not break.

                          Bob, are those crows? Ravens? Vultures? Whatever they are, that’s a great silhouette shot. And that sky in ominous looking.

                            Black Crows, common around here. Stand about a foot and a half tall.

                            Wasn't too long before our neighborhood hawk moved them out...

                              Great pic Bob. Disappointed though, I wanted so much to believe they were vultures. LOL.

                                Nice silhouette.
                                Interesting that the background sky is much lighter behind the main subject and blue elsewhere. Really adds to the scene.
