 Posted: 19:59 - 21 Jan 2008 Post subject: Whats the creepiest thing you've seen while riding at night? |
 |
|
When I ride my bike to work, I have about a 40 minute ride down a 2 lane highway in the middle of nowhere. I get off at midnite, and I'm lucky if I see any one else on the ride home.
So, your mind starts to play with you.
One night, I swear to god I saw the mothman
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mothman
This man sized figure was in the middle of the road about maybe a half mile down the road. As I got closer, I could see bright red eyes, and what looked like wispy wings. I got within about 100yards or so, and it just evaporated into thin air.
Another night, I felt a tap on my back. Man that creeped me out. I had to pull over in one of the towns and walk around for a bit under the lights of a gas station to get my wits back about me.
I also saw a Mountain Lion last summer, but I was in my truck on the same stretch of road. He was just walking into the trees off the side of the road. It was definitely a big cat. I thought at first it was a dog, but you could tell from the way it was walking and its tail that it was a cat. Strange because they aren't supposed to be around here, but some guys at work said people will see them now and then in our area. |

I passed a fox earlier, about 4:30pm, having a piss on the verge..
not quite as scary :p |
Yeah, foxes don't have a history of eating people, you know?
haha, not like he'd be able to catch me on my bike, but its still a scary thought. What if I broke down along that stretch of road, and pissed him off or something?
Oh well, like my dad says, those kind of animals are more afraid of us than we are of them. |

I had a piss in the middle of nowhere one night, riding home from my dad's 24 miles from my house. Must have been only a farm house within 10 miles (possible slight exaggeration there, but a couple miles for sure).
Anyway, whilst having a piss against a verge on a straight road lined with tree's each side, there's suddenly a lot of rustling and shaking straight in the tree lined verge I'm pissing up. In my panic I stumble backwards, around the safe side of my bike, slightly pissing over my textiles, and the rustling stops, but there's still the sound of something moving about. So I throw my leg over my bike, textiles unfastened, and fly wide open, and ride off in a suitably spooked fashion.
Not the best survival skills ever tbh with the panicy indecision, and probably all that over an inquisitive badger too  ____________________ TL1000s, KDX200

My one is not night and is from cycling. Had the wind on my back and was making good progess down a lane. As I rounded a gentle bend, there was this large black dog standing on the road with its head in the vergeside grass. There was no owner in sight. I slowed as dogs have a habit of chasing cyclists. When it heard me it looked up and boy oh boy. It sure looked like a panther . When it jumped into the hedge it really moved in a most feline way. ____________________ Before: Suzuki GT 185.

Again, not at night or on a bike...
But back when i lived on a farm a few years ago i saw a large black cat 3 times in the space of a few months. The first time i was out rabbiting and as i looked through the rifle scope at it i could tell it was definatly not a normal cat, it was way too big.
We also found a sheep carcass in the woods on our land. It had obviously been dragged there by something
So yeah, they are out there!  |

I tend to ride too fast and have to concentrate on the road itself too much to see much more than a blur most of the time...  ____________________ I Ride: Honda CBR 400RR.
