Rattlesnake!

Today Will and I took a quick bike ride on the Bluff Trail at Montana de Oro. Near the beginning of the trail a rattlesnake was stretched out across the trail. It blended into the dirt really well and I didn't notice it until I almost ran over it. When my tire got close, it coiled up, ready to strike. I didn't have time to stop so I lifted up my feet and sailed by. By the time Will got close, it was heading into the bushes. It was a pretty exciting start to a nice bike ride.
