They are stupid creatures. I took my kids for a ride to the local parkland. Cycling past the *massive* and very busy play area full of kids and parents one of the critters decides to run across the path in front of my wheel. I brake in time but as I unclip, it does a u-turn to the back of my front wheel and the bike gently eases itself onto its spine.
Cue convulsing rodent with popped out eyeball.
Now, there I am with my two kids, surrounded by other kids and parents, and twitching road kill at my feet.
– “Its still alive Dad!”
– “Yes, best we throw it into the trees so its mummy can find it.”
In answer to what tyres for squirrel kill – I say 29er bonty XDX.
