Ouch. Swap the deer with a car and I´ve just been there myself. Not a good feeling.

Glad you´re ok!

Yes I´m sort of fine. Still struggling with a shoulder and a neck, but specialists are coming my way, or is it the other way round, and I´m up and walking about, even working again. Things progress slower than expected though.

Sad to hear about the crashed Girly. Let´s hope your insurance covers it?!

Whoa the tiger bought it completely too? That's a real shame.  What next?
Is it really an adventure bike if its wheels never see dirt?
