Worked for Animal Control here for 32 years, picked them up like that all the time! Even had to get one out of a passenger seat of a car, had went through windshield and landed in seat. terrylee:(
 
We have some transplanted Ibex out on the White Sands Missile test range here in Southern NM. Hiway dept had to put up a secondary fence along side the usual fence that runs along side the hiway. Only difference is this fence is 7ft tall. Yup those suckers can jump. A few years ago a fella on a Goldwing was heading home back to Las Cruces from the Aspen Fest Rally in Ruidoso. Yeah it was dark and anyone who knows this particular area watches for these animals. Well, poor dude didn't see this one that evening and hit it at 75mph, killed him and the Ibex ( they weigh in around 500-600lbs).
 
usually the deer are just standing around. not that hard to avoid. this one thought it could out run my brother on my 80 gs1000g. it was after dark and nailed him in a full out run, basically out of nowhere. here's my bro, he's a tough guy and takin it like a man. bike is pretty messed up, possibly fixable.

he was wearing gear. i don't even want to think about what he would look like if he wasn't.
 
Wtf!?

Wtf!?

early this am, my neighbour on his way too work got this one. that's 3 deer hits by people i know within a couple weeks.

him: nothing broken, on crutches with sprain.
his bike: 80 cb650, minor damage.
deer: back strips marinating and the rest in freezer.

i gotta admit i'm a bit paranoid about riding. the deer are really twitchy these days.

be careful out there.
 
Hope your bro is healing up nice......He seems to have a good attitude.The deer get pretty thick around here too. I hit one with my car in early summer. Bastids!
 
Getting to be that time of the year. Be careful out there everyone.

a serious motorcyclist...

so here's my neighbor, about a week after hitting a deer. he still can't walk very well but he uses his bike and crutches to get around the neighborhood.

my brother is doing pretty good too. he got rid of the hand cast and most of the bandages. the leg cast will be around for a while though.

i rode home from a fracking informational presentation in the dark last night. i was a bit noivess and went pretty slow. it was a nice ride though, probably the last warm night for a while.
 
so my gixxerpunk kid hit yet another deer last week. that's two this year and 3 over his riding career. he didn't go down but the bike has a bunch of broken plastic.

many people have expressed an interest in purchasing or borrowing some of the obvious horse shoe he's carrying around.
