It is odd but I have never come across a snake while out in the desert riding, except for the one time 40 years ago when I rode right over a rattler who was stretched across a dirt road sunning himself.Maybe I am just one of the dummies who doesn't pay attention.
No, I've yet to see one myself while riding...I just hope I never do...MY LUCK, this weekend wil be the time I do. We saw one up in the rocks right next to a pathway in the rocks during the KOH race last Feb...
