ummmm..... Let's see, on a bike,I've hit three deer,a cat,a muffler,part of a plastic lawn chair,a huge plastic sign,a dead pine tree(must have fell off a truck),a traffic barrel,a farm implement/combine(barely,broken fender no biggie),a bird in the chest,a Coors bottle thrown from a pick up truck (remember that,guys?),a garbage bag,hmmm that's probably all of the weird ones I can remember.

One of these.



I was exiting the parking garage in the building I work at behind a car and the magnetic sensors didn't pick me up on my Tuono. The barrier started raising and the gate arm began to lower.... Luckilly it was a solid ramp that raised up (not a bar, like shown above) and I was traveling in the opposite direction than the arrow in the picture... I had to fuckin gas it & jumped the damn thing.

Definitely got my attention!

Speaking of OSP/drewpy mishaps...

I don't know if it's strange but I killed about 15,000 butterflies last Spring at the Gap. Ok maybe it wasn't QUITE that many but it was a lot!! They were quite distracting to drive through...
