Thumbs up Almost crashed trying to save a squirrel

I live in Westland MI and went for a ride on Edward Hines Dr yesterday evening to try out the new Joe Rocket Honda CBR mesh jacket I got.

Hines Dr is a nice 18 mile stretch with twisties and there are about 5 traffic lights on the 18 mile stretch, only wish the speed limit was a little higher than 40 mph.

It was a nice ride, lots of people riding yesterday, every single sportbike / standard bike rider waved, and not a single Harley rider cared to wave, maybe they really need both hands to control their bikes LOL

So on the way back in the middle of a turn, this little squirrel tries to cross the road, then changes mind, then decides to cross again, then changes mind again. I had to brake and swerve to avoid killing it and almost lost control, but I'm glad I didnt kill it and didnt crash.
