Chickens & Collarbones

Went out on a ride Sunday out of Waller Mill Park in Williamsburg - a couple other guys and me. about 40-45 minutes into the ride we rounded a downhill corner when, low and behold, a chicken darted out into the road right under the front wheel of the guy in front. The chicken was about the size of a basketball and Dave had no chance - he went down hard. The end result was a busted collarbone and thumb as well as many bruises and cuts. Not a good day. He had surgery today - a plates and 8 screws. Too bad it's not October at the end of the season.
