As resident owner of the original SV Bambikiller, I can safely say he didn't try hard enough.


He didn't cut it in half, I did and it was only at 60mph.


However, I can say that the front end was slightly more wobbly than in the vid, well it would be....he only clipped it, I had the damn thing jump on my front tyre and try to bounce off it!

Now THAT would've been a better scene in Bambi than the snowy field.

Just watched it again. He didn't even get his boots splattered. Gah I were covered in sh!t from head to foot.

Bet he looks in every bush these days, took me years to stop looking for moving bushes.
Just to add insult to injury, a damn duck tried to do the same thing on the same stretch of road last year, difference being was being pitch black you don't expect to see a duck staring at you like a Zombie in your headlight.

'aaaahh f00k a duck..' scared the bejeezus out of me.

I really hate that A65, flippin animals do it on purpose I tell ye!

The only thing I've killed on my bike so far was a little birdy, a house martin I think. I was only travellin at about 20mph when it happened. All the other birds thought they'd play it safe and swoop over me but one little daredevil thought he could make it underneath my bike and between the wheels. Great aim actually, I saw him enter between the gap but never exit, feeling a slight bump. Poor thing.

He says in the comment space that he mounted it wrong by accident on that particular ride.
