So I’ve been working pretty stupid (long) hours lately and have thus been riding home late in the evenings. Has anyone else noticed that the W&OD and Custis trail turn into a bunny party around 9:30 at night? I swear I nearly hit 5 last night, and spotted easily 50 or so darting across the trial through-out my ride… I am sure my “burn your retinas” light attracted them, but it was a pretty awesome site, if not slightly nerve racking to see the old “rabbit” adage in full effect.
On Aesop’s other end, I’ve been seeing a TON of turtles early in the morning (have rescued them two rides in a row). They are never as appreciative of being rescued as you might expect (clearly they had plans for an assignation on the OTHER side of the W&OD)… ungrateful hissing little bastards.
