Apparently pretty high…

Just in case you haven’t seen this amazing video yet of a mountain bike race in Africa:

I had almost the exact same thing happen to me…except it was a small spike buck White Tail deer and I was on my motorcycle doing about 50 mph. Oh, and unlike the antelope in this video, the deer that hit my motorcycle did not get up and run away. It made it to the side of the road before dying.

  1. *headshake* apparently the race officials failed in their duty to point out that the entire track is one big animal [pick one] crossing and that the odds of having a real interesting meeting with the roadkill would be high.
