Power with Control
Nice fake almost nailed me. Coming up 235 this AM about 0655 between Park Hall Road and Hermanville. Some traffic going north with me, some coming south. Notice a turkey buzzard/vulture ahead, really low, maybe 10 feet up sweeping across the lanes. Knowing a hit from that beast might take me out, he takes some of my attention. Most of the rest is on traffic, just as he clears the roadway, I see why he was doing that, a dead rabbit just right of center, where I like to be a lot as it gives me shielding from oncoming, an out to the right a bit quicker, but still close enough to center to see what oncoming is doing. Missed it's bloody lumpy carcass with an inch to spare. Not a close enough call to raise the heart rate, but enough to make me shake my head that I was even that close. Good lesson in attention division.
Most likely I would have rolled over that mess with at worst some nasty stains on my pants cuffs, but you never know with even a small animal.
