Funny screenname, LK. They used to call me that at the office, but that's a story for another time...
Yeah, really freaky when it was going down all slow motion. It's like there were 7 or so birds, and I had to make a split second choice on which one to take out. Which would result in his placement somewhere on my bike or body. Lucky I didn't get it to the head - would have taken me off the bike and then the wife would posting this for me instead. Either that, or hitting the faceshield it would shattered the plastic and jammed pieces into my face. Then the wife wouldn't think I'm so handsome anymore.
Imagine if it even hit one of my handlebars? Lights out, guarenteed going down.
If you think about it, it as a perfect hit. Glad I didn't lay it down or freak out, just came to stop nice and calmly. My buddy was more freaked out than I was.
Whew. Be safe out there if you ride.
