yesterday, i had to bunny hop a rattlesnake while mtn biking. once my front wheel cleared the snake, gravity unceremoniously brought be back to earth..one of my wheels hit a rock and all forward movement ceased. so now i have a rattlesnake directly under my pedals. it was not coiled but stretched out, head facing right.

i tried to stay like that indefinitely..well, my mouth was making this "ya-ya-ya..." sound. i started to tip over. i chose the tail side and went left. boom!! that snake shot off right, i went over left. it was a good outcome.

a bunch of ladies in horrid lululemon running gear came to my assistance..or they wanted to point and laugh. i blamed the snake, which was long gone..it got them discussing how snake bites where not covered by insurance.. i was "no way!"

that's what they said..they said bills get huge, and there are a serious of shots sometimes. got me wondering. so i emailed them.

what do you think? (to me)it makes no sense that a snake bite is not covered..a wasp bites me and i need an epipen and ER visit..i am 99% sure that is covered! no?
