Wednesday Video - Ostrich Chases Cyclists

Ostrich in pursuit of two cyclists

This week's video was filmed somewhere in Africa, but I'm not exactly sure where. A group of cyclists were riding along and an ostrich started chasing them. There are two cyclists out front being chased, and the one filming hangs back behind the ostrich. According to Wikipedia, ostriches can weigh over 300 pounds run at a speed of forty miles per hour. Those two front riders must have been going pretty fast to stay ahead. The ostrich chased them for about one minute. Here's the full video, which is one minute and twenty seconds long:
