GREAT post Sarah!!!! I'd also like to remind some of you passionate cyclists.....will still need volunteers for our Two County Metric. Feel free to call me 615-419-1323.
Food for thought. I have a cousin that was once arrested for firing at decoy deer, that TWRA set out, from the roadway. You never really know who is watching. Be safe and ride on.
Shooting at anything from a car or roadway IS illegal! Protecting oneself with a permit and a gun IS NOT!
Again, be safe and ride on.
