Hitchin' a ride!

I was being silly :D

I would have sold the bike with it on it.
I killed one last summer (a flock birds did a low pass on the road), lucky enough it didn't get trapped somwhere in the bike.
 
I got hit in the face by a pheasant a couple of years ago - screen took the most of it but it took the visor off my lid and I thought I'd broken my neck...... Careered across the road - fortunately it was outside the Oxfordshire Golf Club (no I wasnt going in) where the road widens into a turning area, sort of slowed down and stopped in the middle (was doing 60-70). Got off bike, took helmet off and wandered back down road to look at (very dead) pheasant. Another biker passed and asked if I was ok.........and then asked if he could have the pheasant - bungee'd to the back of his bike !

Huge black eye was the only injury.

I hit two amorous ducks last year - one hit light/screen and the second hit me full in the face - 8 weeks of whip-lash! i'd rather hit a little bird anyday!:(
