For me: Riding on a BC ferry, almost running over a deer who jumped 6" in front of me, 5' of snow on the sides of the road.

Last September I was riding on back roads and had one of these screaming straight for my faceshield:

I ducked my head, it swooped upwards, and I was spared a very feathery meeting with the asphalt...I'm pretty sure that would have knocked me off my bike.

Not weird, but it's all I got :)

I was in Sturgis and there was this guy pulling his trailer with his bike..ok lots of people do that, however it was what was on the trailer that surprised me. It was an old paralyzed lady tied down in her wheelchair her head was bent over and she was drooling, I was in total shock so was my husband I only wish I had my camera to proove it! No one would believe me when I told them.

While on a group ride a couple of weeks ago and I was sitting at a stop light. All of a sudden, someone tapped me on my shoulder!! I thought,
"What the heck, someone get out of their car to come and talk to me??" Then I turned around and it was a fellow rider who had come up on the opposite side of me and locking down my saddle bag!!

That was weird!! He said he thought he better let me know he was there, other wise I would have drove off with his hand attached to my bag!!

Funny!! (and a weird feeling!) :shock: :lol:
