Cables/cords are tone controls, get it right, and you will be musically rewarded.

Found my first tarantula in my backyard today. Yikes!!! That's one big hairy spider!!!
What does this have to do with cables?

"What does this have to do with cables?"
If you're referring to the posts on tarantulas then I refer you to the OP's post where he derailed his own thread lol.

Where? I have been riding in the mountains here in surprise az and have never seen any
I had ridden in every mountain biking location/park/reserve in Phoenix metro for 17 years and did not see one until I was walking my dog at the earth damn off of Pinnacle Peak and 35th Ave. He was crawling along at a nice little pace. Also saw my first (in Arizona) horned toad lizard (quite large) at the same place. Lots of huge rattlesnakes there too especially in March and April.
Fountain hills right on the edge of the Tonto National forest. It was in my back yard. We usually get the little baby rattlesnakes this time of year. And occasionally the Bobcats eating doves off the walls.
Last month we had a pack of coyotes attacking and eating some renters/visitors dog. They must have left him out in the backyard and didn't know about the coyotes, bobcats and occasional mountain lions. It was a VERY unpleasant sound!!!
I'm also in the same area. I see them most in August and into the fall. It is rockier/volcanic here more than Surprise, elevation around 2,500 feet. Maybe that has something to do with it. When they are out they seem to migrate towards the north. There are more some years than others. I bike ride every day, this year so far I have seen maybe a half dozen.
My wife had a friend that had Halloween parties on her patio. One year a tarantula showed up, hung around for the party. She decided it was her deceased husband Jack, in costume.
We even have some here in Southern California.
Up in a big park in Laguna Beach, they are of course protected and appear on trails periodically.
I saw one there 3 decades ago while damaging myself learning about Mountain Biking.
Too much is never enough
The only time I ever saw a tarantula (outside of a zoo or exotic pet shop) was about 35 years ago on the side of the road. I can't remember if it was New Mexico or west Texas, but it was a 2-lane blacktop road. He had just climbed onto the dark asphalt to get warm. I was driving about 60 and hit my brakes (zero traffic on some back road). I walked back to look at him. He never moved and had lots of hair (unlike me these days).
Ha! LOL - that's funny.
Similarly, I had an encounter with a couple dozen tarantulas on the road. Driving from Dallas (where I live) to Ft. Sill, Oklahoma to do a computer class, I saw these big "things" crossing the road. I thought, "What the heck?". So, I slowed down and saw that they were tarantulas! I stopped and opened the door so I could get an up close and personal look at them. Then, I wondered if they could jump, so I closed the door and went on my merry way. Crunch, crunch.
Hey, did you get my email last week?
:)
Inmate were you asking me about getting email?

Lived in Kings Canyon National Forest for 4yrs, my daily work commute included 30 miles of the best bike riding in the country. When not in the cage you'll experience all kinds of things others never will, some not necessarily good lol.The Tarantulas in California have a yearly migration that at times reminded me of my days in fl hitting land crabs they were so plentiful on the roads.
Then there was the time I rode past a dead tiger, that's right a tiger that had been hit by a truck. Apparently it had escaped from a "large cat" shelter and wandered into traffic on the mountain rd at night.
Then the night I was kamikazied by an errant bat at 60mph square in the chest. All I could think was "biker in trouble, biker in trouble" lol.
And of course there were always the deer and bear to worry about.
