I just remembered a squirrel incident on a mountain bike !
Rather like carbon's - a sudden flash from the side towards the front wheel - no time to do anything
Then there was this god-awful screeching from the front wheel, so I looked down ... and the squirrel was holding onto the spokes going round with the wheel
I slowed down - as you do when this happens - and he jumped out and continued across the road
Sue riding behind missed it all and I still dont think she believes me !
