Wow!  Glad to hear that neither you nor the deer went down and you (and the
deer) are ok!

Here it's the kangaroos you have to worry about: 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC0UF-hDKGw.

Whenever I see a kangaroo anywhere near while out riding - I usually see 
them several times a week - I go absolutely dead slow until I'm sure the 
kangaroo is a reasonable distance away and heading in the other direction. 
Several of my friends have been taken out by kangaroos or wallabies while 
out riding. They (the animals, that is) are pretty erratic, and can turn 
very sharply - the engineers from Volvo in charge of their animal collision

managed to adapt their software that works with moose, cows, etc to

Wow - close call! Glad to hear you didn't go down! (And I can't help but 
wonder if something can't be said for the stability of the Roadini.)

I'm pretty sure the deer that hit me weighs less than a car. Hopefully I
won't be a disaster tomorrow.

Re: [RBW] Deer-bike collision

[Patrick Moore]

I'm glad your wheels stayed down and hope that you are not too sore in a
day or two. I was knocked over by a right-turning car at slow speed over 15
years ago and after getting a few lacerations stitched up felt pretty good,
and thought, "Well, I can ride in tomorrow." Nope, I spent a week stiff and
sore. But you didn't hit the ground so perhaps you'll fare better.

[RBW] Deer-bike collision

[Piaw Na]

I think I used up all my luck for the next few years: 
https://www.strava.com/activities/8984851311. Coming down Prospect road on 
my Roadini, a deer tried to cross the road as I came around the corner. He 
swerved, I swerved, but we collided, and bounced. I saw my vision go up and 
down and thought it was all over. Fortunately, there was no traffic on the 
road and I didn't crash. The bike seems undamaged as it was my arms and 
legs that made contact. I kept riding home and the deer ran off into the 
bushes by the side of the road. I'm going to be so sore tomorrow. The whole 
thing was over in 2 seconds. I remember Terry Shaw once telling me about 
his days of racing in the velodrome where sprints would physically muscle 
each other while riding. I definitely felt muscled by something that 
outweighed me significantly!
