You say that now..... wait till you have a slab of one grilled medium rare with a side of asparagus and twice baked potato.
I say that every time I meet one of those assholes standing in the middle of the trail with their asshole-grin. They know what’s up, that’s why they are smiling.

Not here, where it will probably be 0-20 degrees out when you get one.
Freezing your ass of doesn't make it less sucky. Moose meat acquisition is another thing. My Brother or anyone else, will never convince me this is a good idea. Elk is my exception. No Bear, Seal. or Moose for me. Turkey and Venison is OK. Fowl is to much work... I just butchered up a thawed out frozen pig. I would prefer to not have ever do that again.

New kill list addition. This thing right here.
Fucking flies sidelined my ride today. Tried to ride up high into the mountains, but under a crazy high pressure ridge there's no wind, 85+ degrees, smoke from the wildfires, and the flies were just out of control. Luckily it was all DH back to the car, but this was unreal.

Yeah man, I know the pain.

You want to do the flailing arms dance moves, but ya got tech shit to ride in front of you. Eventually the stupid ass bugs win and you either turn around or eat shit trying to swat the fuckers away.

Strava actually did a pretty good job of capturing my swerving to try and throw the flies off and riding in circles to try and outrun them.

My heart rate was spiking like crazy on this ride and it just got to be too much.
