Hunting Bears Without a License (Misleading Title)

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share

A gentleman in Boulder County, CO was treated this week, after he tried an unusual method of hunting a bear: Bicycle collision. It was not successful.

More seriously - the man in question was going a good pace (He claims 45 mph, but given the fact that both he and the bear walked away, and the bike was ridable, after the collision, I don’t buy it.) when a bear walked into the roadway. This quote from the story is priceless:

I’m glad that neither Tim Egan, nor the bear seems to have been badly hurt, but the physical comedy aspect is inescapable. So I thought my fellow Dopers would enjoy the story.

I liked that they were both scared. Also, the bear was scared off by…a deer. Bears scare easily. Wasn’t there a bear who ran up a tree because he was scared by a few kittens?

The bark… a bigger effect than the bike, yes?

Same thing happend two years ago at the Boulder half triathlon. The woman was able to finish the race. They even made up a new award in her honor - The ‘Bearly’ made it award.

How do you have half a triathlon? You stop swimming midway?

Reminds me of The Office where the 5K ends, 5K away from the office.

Well, props to that guy for trying. That method of hunting is simply unbearable.
