Plague

In Australia they have these toads that cover everything and people can't drive without squishing 1000s, today it was worms, the first real rain of the season saturated the ground pushing the worms out of their labyrinth. Washing the bike tonight I scraped them off the rims, chainstays and crank arms. Delicious. Rolling through the worm field I hoped it would smell like fresh dirt, it didn't robbed of the subtle spring smells I look for at 9000 feet instead it was a sickly smell of rotting filth.
