Are squirrels genetically programmed to play chicken with cyclists?
It sure seems as if they are. It seems that any time I pedal through a leafy area, one of those fuzzy creatures hops and scampers as close to my wheel as it can without getting tangled in my spokes. Then it scampers away.
That leads me to wonder: How would a squirrel ride a bicycle?
The image is available as a T-shirt. I think it's kinda cute.
