This morning around 5am I was riding to work. It was about 40 degrees out and I was starting to get cold.
I was headed down HWY 221 at around 65- 70mph (I know to fast)
All of a sudden this deer ran out in front of me. I could see he was stretching his legs out and going at full speed but it seemed like slow motion.
My front wheel just missed his butt and I thought to myself he was going to hit my back wheel/fender. He just missed that also
The funny thing about it is how slow it all seemed to happen. I know it was not slow at the speed I was going but I swear I could have reach out and petted that deer as I went by.
I quickly forgot about the cold and started watching the sides of the road better. I usually do this but this morning I was more focused on the cold
The hunters around here need to start taking out these deer. I have had so many near misses with them. I know its going to happen one day.
I know those dear whistle do not work but is there anything else that does?
Be safe out there
