Bad start to the 4th....

15953

Headed out at zero dark thirty to fish for the day in Wyoming and then meet the wife and girls at the family house in the hills for the weekend, about 45 minutes from home I blasted a deer at 75 mph, totally pissed, nursed my ride home with a blown radiator, crappy start!

[CoffeeWaterBeer]

Damn... At least you're ok. Those suckers can mess you up if you hit 'em right.

[Steve]

That sucks Mike. Were you able to salvage any of the meat at least?

Didn't see where it went, I am sure it's on the side of the road now, I'll be heading back that way a little later and see.

[Porch Dweller]

Bummer, man!

[Dave128]

That sucks. Glad you're OK.

[czerbe]

Ouch... stay safe brother

[Remo]

Nature has a way of getting even, this was payback for all the squirrels and bunnies! :sl

[pnoon]

Sorry to hear, Mike.
I'm happy your o.k. though.

[Remo]

Thanks all, wife was a bit upset that I could have been hurt, told her that's why we don't drive Prius's :)...have a call into the insurance, now gotta get all my stuff and out get it in my wife's ride and get outta town :wo

[irratebass]

Sorry your car got beat up, glad you are ok & that you have 2nd plan in motion, have a safe & fun 4th

[AdamJoshua]

Glad you're okay, Mike, of course it wasn't a great start to the 4th for the deer either.

Nope, deer heaven :sh

[Remo]

Only $100 deductible, off to the dealership for a fix :tu

[icehog3]

Glad you're OK, Mike. Had a motorcyclist here killed by a deer last week, so it could have been much, much worse. Hope you're back on the road without too much delay.

[dijit]

Glad your ok. Good thing you drive a light armored car!

Ya, deer and bikes don't mix.

[markem]

Glad you are okay, Mike. Those hooved rats are sneaky, I tell ya.

[CRIMPS]

Ack! That's the worst. Happy to hear it didn't go through the windshield.

[badbriar]

Glad you weren't hurt. Same for your fishing gear...now THAT would have really sucked! :tu

[Ashcan Bill]

I can only echo what everyone else said - really glad you weren't hurt. We were in Utah last week and I counted 4 dead deer on the side of the road. A family of them ran across a couple hundred yards in front of me. Seems like they're all over the roads lately.

[CigarNut]

Thank God that you are all ok!

[Ogre]

Glad your OK.

[E.J.]

Youch! Tough start, but bonus that you were able to limp home! Glad you're okay and the weekend plan continues, though changed a bit. Still get to huck flies or now just to the house in the hills?

[Blueface]

Sucks but being OK takes precedence.

[c2000]

I hit a big doe approx 3 weeks ago of course I was driving my "baby" 2011 Cadillac CTS V coupe..7K worth of damage,,all cosmetic but expensive..It hit on the right front and to make matters worse **** all over the passenger door.

It seems to me that there are more deer alive and dead then in years before. I would not drive a motorcycle on any rural roads in Minnesota.


Jerry in Minnesota.

[IBQTEE1]

Glad, that you are OK.
