I think the dehydration can take you where you never want to be.

On several rides I remember pondering different alligator scenarios. Sometimes I would hypothesize what I would do if an alligator started chasing me. Other times I would wonder if I could swim across the given lagoon and managed to not get attacked by alligators. They're such amazing creatures to watch and ponder.

I also have thought... "how am I going to explain to someone on my cell where the hell I am." Jennifer- You would land back in Kansas, Dorothy... hurry click your heels... Oh wait, they're locked in. Chris- Is it still that cold there? Deborah- I like the "guys I pass" part. If I am slow, at least my legs look good. :) By the way, no joke here... a friend of mine had a squirrel run into his spokes. Result: bumps, bruises, scrapes, broken helmet, broken glasses, broken spokes and a whole lot of squirrel hair in his chain. BEWARE OF SQUIRRELS!

They run in front of me then stop, then run to the ditch. After I have ran off the trail. The thought that runs thru my mind is I'm going to break my neck because of a SQUIRREL. Also I think about the guys I pass and admire the leg muscles. I see alot of squirrels, and they are brave squirrels. They run in front of me then stop, then run to the ditch.

As branches were hitting my head...All I could think about was...what if I was riding a bike during a tornado? Normally, I just trying to get up the next hill...so it's a pretty good exercise for me to get my mind off things, since I'm so busy concentrating on not falling!

Usually I have odd songs in my head that I never hear on the radio anymore. Songs by bands like Supertramp....."Take The Long Way Home". At times I even think, "This would be a bad place to get hit by a car." "Who would ever find me out here?!?!" I ride alone a lot, so my mind has taken me to some very strange places.

Will- Yes... my wife and I know Gruyere... it's a wonderful cheese. :) I also understand the amazing views. By the way, Sinatra 3 times. I'm a jealous crooner fan.
