for you bike riders

   @snagged in outlet 3 and @fishinwrench,

    Be careful out there on your next rides.

I used to ride mountain bikes back in the day and often ran into folks riding horses, we where taught to stop and get off our bikes to let horses pass. The silent fast movement triggered the horses predator instincts and they could buck riders off.   Guessing the Bull got his "Macho" instinct triggered"

The only bulls I have to be concerned with are Pit Bulls.

I would be out hunting with Horseback Riders all over.

Horses were the stupidest animal around. They would go nuts over person in Camouflage, Blood, Vehicle. Never knew with them.

Which brings up something I see nearly everyday.   Lots of people walk their dogs in the burbs here.   I noticed a couple ways people do it.  Talk on the phone and look around.  Just look around or watch your dog drop a deuce.😂  So what do you do?

Have a neighbor from Canada. When they are down she will walk her Dog over on KOA so it won’t dump in their yard.

             Yes, downright dangerous at times. Took mine out west to Montana twice on bowhunts. Way back then you could buy the sportsman tags for a mere 350 bucks that had elk, deer and bear plus small game and fishing. Three-week trip both times. I had a big fox trotter. I knew nothing about riding it taught me. I could shoot my recurve while in the saddle. But one tome while riding in along a narrow trail on the side of the mountain a bunch of blue grouse flushed at his feet. I actually thought I was going to die that day. Another thing on a trail like that the stupid horses walk the outside of the trail instead of closer to the hill side? UGH.  Another time we were camped down lower in high sage rolling hills. Cousin and I had horses on stake pickets at night. Got up next morning and our horses were gone. Stakes pulled. We got to a high point and seen them at a distance. Long walk and as I was trying to get mine from the front he spun and kicked me in the upper thigh right next to the family jewels. He hit me rock solid and I ended up with a perfect horseshoe bruise. UGH again. Kept him as long as I could. Could not bear to take him to the sale barn. Finally, a gal came by and wanted him. I gave old Fritz away and know he ended up at sale barn and glue factory.

If I'm ever lost, Orion will be my compass.   He spins around 5-10 times (orienting himself) then once he's satisfied that he is facing due East, exactly 90° from true North.....he dumps the load.    It's more reliable than moss on a tree trunk 👍

He got his name because when he makes me take him outside to poop after midnight, I stand there and stare at the constellations.

If you're in the burbs having a bag in view is the thing to do.  Otherwise Karen's are libel to accost you for not picking up your waste.  It's virtue signaling for dog shat😂

Had a guy take his horses in the mountains. Had a heck of time with them. Said it was the feed.

Did he ever think taking them to a higher elevation they might have hard time breathing.
