Damn, I hate deer!
3:30 in the afternoon. Cruise set, enjoying life. Just seen it comin out of the ditch, Ditches not mowed and tall grass and weeds. Just enough time to try a swerve and hit brakes before impact. Think I went over the bars. Heard the bike sliding past as I was rolling on the asphalt. ER Doc says I'm damn lucky. Walked in to ER and back out. Just a little rash and some sore joints. Bike is pretty screwed up, even though I rode it home. I hope its totaled and start over new.

Daym!!! As said before, I though that was a dawn/dusk issue. Sorry about the bike, but glad you are able to walk to and from. Take care.
