I was passing a motorhome in Yellowstone on an xl 350 and almost hit a Grizzley that was running across the road out of my view. Scared the crap out of me. Luckily he was at a full run out of there.

I grew up around Yellowstone, Cody, Wy. actually, and know about having the crap scared out of me too by bears. 

He looks like Toni Bou. But if it was he'd just leap the bike up a tree and wait.

AI bent Toni’s forks.

I had a bear run across a section of the loop trail I was on once.  Small black bear so not sure how risky it was, still unnerving, but was interesting to get a glimpse of one on the ride for me and my riding buddy.
