So I'm just riding along doing about 16, 17 mph and I see these geese a couple hundred feet in front of me. Now in Pittsburgh the geese just stand and stare at you as you go by them... not in West Virginia. So as I get closer I see them so I slow down to about 10 mph and the goose in the picture lowers its head and starts sprinting at me, completely unafraid of the fact that I'm huge compared to it and coming fast. It misses me and then leaves me alone, so I kept going and looked back and before I knew it, I was approaching another family and this time the goose starts to charge and then it starts flapping its wings and flew straight in to me! I went down hard, and while I was on the ground the goose kept coming at me so I got up and ran the other direction and finally it went back and just strolled along with its family like nothing happened.
Do NOT mess with geese.
Hahahaha....great story!
