I was waiting for a front tyre explosion so that caught me out!
There are deer in this area, but I have hardly ever seen them. On one rare sighting, the deer in question actually did that to me on a fast descent but went right over my head - from my left, HERE!
It doesn't even look like a cycle lane, rather the edge of the road. Either way it would no doubt be covered in all sorts of crap. Odd really as it doesn't even look like a busy road. Apart from random deer of course!
I saw this on the Cycle Recycle FB page. Someone commented 'holy cow' which made me smile. Definitely a deer.
I've had a deer bounce over my car bonnet, I had to think what it would be like to actually have one take you off your bike.
*Ok so it was on the other side of the road, but still the same situation.........ok ok a slightly different animal................ok ok it was a bit smaller but it was a predator...with sharp pointy tee.........OK OK IT WAS A CAT
