| BOULDER, Colo. (CBS4) A cyclist in Boulder County was injured after a run-in, literally, with a bear. Tim Egan, 53, was riding on Old Stage Road Tuesday afternoon when suddenly a bear appeared in front of him. Egan hit the bear and ended up skidding across the road. 'This bear looked at me with a look of terror on his face and sort of made a noise,' said Egan. 'I looked at him with a look of terror and we went, 'aaaahhhhh.'' He cracked some ribs, suffered cuts on his head and had road rash. Egan said he and the bike flipped and flew over the bear, hitting the pavement hard. News Video at the link |

| #6 'This bear looked at me with a look of terror on his face, and sort of made a noise..." ("Hey Yogi, I don't think Mr. Ranger's gonna like this...") Yeah, right. This numbskull has studied bear emotions and know what a look of fear as interpreted by a bear should look like. Marlin Perkins or his sidekick Jim I might believe, but not Mr. Spandex-pants. |

| #2 No, he's lucky Dept. of Fish and Game didn't cite him for molesting a bear. Could have made a quick $89 bucks off him. |
