Mountain biker collides with bear while cycling
A cyclist in California was enjoying a casual ride near Lake Tahoe when he crashed his bike — into a bear.
Davis Souza was mountain biking with friends on Mills Peak trail in the US when he crossed paths with the startled animal. He caught the whole collision on what appears to be a GoPro camera and posted the video to his Instagram.
"This bear came out of nowhere and was gone before I could ask if it was alright or anything… Volume up!" he wrote.
At first, it's tough to tell what is happening. But a closer look at the slow motion footage confirms that the bear definitely did not have the right of way.
