Roadkill - Amazing Vid

[_Stretchie_]

I remember you turning up at AR07 with one cammo covered leg and one red... And the fur trapped in the bead of the tyre..


: )

Flippin brand new boots.. red, and pink camo's...red. It did all come out though

haha yes the furry eyelashes. They were my lucky charm after that, they stayed for another 2.5k to France and back! Was most annoyed when the tyre needed changing and they didn't save it! Still got the pics somewhere of the furry wheel rims.

If you hit a deer, are you in general more likely to stack it, or keep it upright?

[Mej]

stack it i reckon, it has been know to kill people, apparently its a real problems in places like Aus with kangaroos and that.

Has dizzy finished hijacking now?



He was very lucky to stay on, must have been pooping it lol

[dizzyblonde]

cheeky sod Darren . Besides, it appears I am an expert when it comes to hitting deer head on..lol

As for 'stacking it'...in most circumstances including a car interface, its likely that the deer will make a mess of you and your vehicle.
However....although you panic, the one thing that saves you and makes you mega cool looking is to actually let go of the throttle sllllllloooooooowly, and let the bike sllllllooooooooow down and let itself ride out of the big wobble of impact. I reckon the guy in the vid did the same.

If you give it a load of panic brake it'll end up you being the mess, as much as the deer.

I still say to this day that the way I let go, even though I shat myself was because I did this.
Its a freak occurence which is unlikely to happen to many.
I do know that Speedy Claire got hit by a pheasant, wacked in the head and thrown unconcious, she said if she hadn't have been knocked out, things had have turned out a whole load different, with more than just broken bones.
