I was slowly walking the Canada Trail at Capelton road near Sherbrooke. The trail was realy crowded with bikers going both ways. The guy seems waiting for the right moment to cross the trail. He look desperate because he realise he put is life at risk. I took a shot for the --post mortem-- (sure the guy was about to die within a minute or two).

Very good close-up of this cool looking customer, Yves. It made me smile and I'm happy that he appears to have made the crossing okay.

Very nice close up Yves. I can see a glimmer of mischief in his eye. I bet he knows quite well how to maneuver the crossing. Nice shot and story. I am with Jane hoping he made it safely.
