I try not to ride when deer movement is likely. Ignorant bastards.


My balls shrivel to raisins when it's deer:30. I ride like a total puss with my head on a swivel.

Wow! One of my old best friends,Gary from Fast Bikes(Rider might know him) hit a black angus one night when we were out riding in the country. I was 3rd in line and we were fucking hauling! Suddenly his bike went flying towards me. I was like,"FUCK" and went sideways but managed to recover. I literally walked into the cow looking for Gary,that's how dark it was and how black the cow was.

That's like hitting a black furry bus.

My mom's cousin hit a black angus in a car. It snapped the legs off of it and it rolled through the passenger compartment killing him instantly.

Gruesome shit.

I've killed three birds and two squirrels and kicked a dog in the mouth.

Get your sag set and ride that bitch. It'll come back too you. Then you will know what you need to do if any thing at all.
