my most excellent ride!
It really didn't start special just a recovery ride. There is a path here in Tulsa that runs next to the Arkansas river on the west side (which is basically the cyclists side). I set out on my normal 15 mile easy out and back that I ride on days when I feel lazy at about the 7 mile mark I look to my left over the water. I just saw something move out of the corner of my eye and it's a FREAKING bald eagle going my same speed about 5 feet away. I have to speed up to keep pace but he dropped me at about 28mph, I just don't have that kind of flat speed, but I did ride with him for about a mile. It was just too cool not to share.
