Millipede (Sigmoria trimaculata)

Ferguson Forest. this pretty millipede was trundling along at top speed but I was able to get a few shots before it vanished. All those legs help it move! Unlike the more common Narceus millipede, it is incapable of rolling into a ball when disturbed.

It's got some long legs too. These are really fast. Great catch. V.
