Hey peter, stay inside

[Tickdoc]

Saw this on fb from a friend that lives in boulder. Sighting near 19th and alpine. I can’t remember exactly where you live, but close enough!

OMG, that's beautiful and scary. Posting a screen shot for OP in case he isn't on FB.

[charliedid]

Yeah some friends who live there posted that the other day.

What a difference a month makes

Beautiful

Not on FB but wife showed me this. 19th an Alpine pretty close..Lotsa deer around too..so no surprise big cats are too. I still see a lot of house cats out and about along with a few dogs(my neighbors on both sides just let the dogs out un attended, dumb-dumb for cats also)...Not much traffic, not a lot of people out either. Boulder full of pretty good 'citizens', why I like this '35 square miles surrounded by reality'...no armed, confederate flag waving 'protesters'...thank Gaia...

Who is that?

[rockdude]

I live on Boulder Creek Trail just west of town, I watch those two cats walk past my house last Sunday heading towards town. As they past by, they saw me in the window, they stopped and watch me watch them. Its not too uncommon to see Cougars outside of the city. Hard a big guy in the yard last year.

Does oldpotatoe not know one of the greatest movies of all time... that is if you have ever worked in a office setting.

[tuscanyswe]

Watch the movie Office Space. Good laughs await you.

From a guy I used to know who worked for BLM:
“You’re more likely to get killed by a vending machine than a mountain lion.”

So I looked it up:
Annual deaths caused by
- Mountain lion - 0.27
- Vending machine - 2.18


Not to say that I still don’t get creeped out at times, riding or running by myself in the woods.

Well, not all chicks.

The kind of chicks that'd double up on a dude like me do.

Why, do often encounter vending machines in the woods?

You're friend's example is a false equivalency. There are far more vending machines in the US (about 4.6 million) than mountain lions (about 20,000 - 40,000), which means that you are far less likely to come across a mountain lion than a vending machine, but if you do come across one, the mountain lion is far more likely to kill you.

Sounds like somebody’s got a case of the Mondays. :(

I was JRA (just riding along) this AM on an unpaved portion of the Du Page River trail in Naperville, IL when suddenly, out of nowhere, a vending machine violently tipped over. It was only years of experience riding and catlike reflexes that saved me.

I suspect a rogue mountain lion waited to ambush cyclists and pushed the errant Coca Cola machine.

I ride my bike on 34 highway that goes by the RV park where this attack occurred.

More of a joke than anything else
