Re: [St] Road debris



Just remembered one other one, although it wasn't road debris until after it hit me.

I was on a tour with a friend (same tour that the Vision experienced the "Snap of Death") and we had been traveling a road that had a series of "Watch for falling rocks" signs. At one viewpoint, I mentioned sarcastically to my riding buddy that I always watch for them but I never see them.

Oh, the rock gods didn't like me mocking them, and within a few more miles I was made a believer. Hit me right on the head. Wasn't a big rock, but if you think hitting a wasp makes a big noise, wait until you get hit by a rock about 2" in diameter.
