I almost got crushed by a horse today !!!

[Lonney]

I was riding the Tenere in Lancaster PA today and I was coming up to an old house where the front of the house starts where the road ends (no sidewalk or room in between the house and road). Then from about ten feet up I see this horse running full blast on his hind legs at me pulling a buggy. So on the side of the house was an icy blind driveway that an Amish dude was wheeling his horse and buggy up.. I panic braked and ducked and stopped inches from those giant hooves !! The horse never stopped. THE YAMAHA ABS SAVED MY ASS TODAY !! I have no doubt in my mind . I'm having trouble not thinking about what could have happened.

CHEERS FOLKS THE MOLSONS ARE ME

I'm friggin impressed that your even out riding in this weather! I talked to Brian yesterday and his daughter told me that they still had a lot of snow on the ground.
