LOL!!! I met a guy who had a friend riding at night on the Natchez Trace on a Goldwing with a passenger. They hit a deer and it went up over the windshield and off to one side. The guy actually managed to keep the bike upright!!!
I am very careful to try and avoid riding at dusk out here in the hills of Middle Tennessee as that is the worst time for deer to cross the road. I still see a lot of them during the day though and I am always using my periphial vision to try and see any movement in the trees off to the side of the road.
Last year the motorcyclist who was considered "Mr. Safety" and had a monthly column in a magazine and taught courses on safety hit a deer in rural Texas and died.
