jhetleyOne porcupine splatter on the Interstate next to an overpass that I use. Not sure I should report it, because it wasn't technically on my route, but it was there and it was definitely roadkill. Also, I can't recommend splattering porcupines with your car, even at considerably less than Interstate speeds. Those quills can do a royal number on your 200-buck steel-belted radials.
I wouldn't normally ride two days in a row, this early in the season, but They forecast rain moving in this evening and lasting into Wednesday. Ride now or forever hold your peace, so to speak. More wind than I think necessary in a well-ordered universe, you've heard _that_ before, but when I'm stalled down to 13 mph on a long downhill where I'm usually cranking about 25...
We'll see what the old bones have to say about this over the next few days.
Added words to SIGNATURES before going out, Fat Wizard about to find out that it ain't over 'till it's over.
