  1. Tells us how hot is was.

    If it was a meteor, and had fallen within the last two minutes, it would have burned your hand.

    It also should have made a rather sizeable hole in the pavement.

    My first thought is that your ATV kicked it up when you didn't see it. If there is really some question, you can contact an observatory or geology department at a college, and they can put you in touch with someone who would know what it is.
