Bunny Race

This morning, after collecting some stuffs from Waitakere, I was driving home when I saw a cyclist coming down a slight hill towards me. As he got closer I saw a small animal running at his back wheel, and I presumed he was out with his dog. A bit small to be running at that speed, say... at least 35km/h?, I thought. As they got closer I saw it wasn't a dog, but a small rabbit who finally zipped past the cyclist and shot in front of his wheel and over into the long grass at the side of the road. I wonder how ignominious it is to be beaten by a rabbit.
