Jesu Cristus...that's one big mountain o' moose. I saw one in the flesh once around Delta Junction, AK when I was there for Northern Warfare training. Came sneaking around a pretty big tree and he was standing on the other side. Took me completely by surprise and I had to look up to look into its face. The next 3 or 4 minutes were interesting from my perspective as I tried to figure out how to back away then run in (US Army!) snowshoes. Moose must've been busy laughing his ass off 'cause he didn't follow.
First, I'm glad you and the bike are okay and you are a bit wiser.I was on the entrance road to the power plant I work at this morning. there is a long straight stretch that comes in by the cooling tower. I regularly like to "open it up" along this stretch and this morning was not completely different.
If there's one thing you don't want to hit ton-up it's a dick...Out here we have quite a variety of "varmints" that occupy/share our riding environs (particularly on land around power plants and public utility sites that provide a protected area), from aves like wild turkeys, quail, dicks, geese and pea-fowl to jackrabbits, skunks, opossums, raccoons, fox, and "antlered forest rats".
Reponses like this should surprise me with that thread title? I was hoping for some creative comments. Glad to be around to read them!Bob: glad you came out ok.

I will definitely be changing my driving going in the plant. That was a wake up call!First, I'm glad you and the bike are okay and you are a bit wiser.I was on the entrance road to the power plant I work at this morning. there is a long straight stretch that comes in by the cooling tower.

Er....may I respectfully request you change your habit? :dribble:

Any on this list could provide and interesting adventure. Most of us, after a close call or two, have learned to control our right wrist as any encounter could prove expensive and painful. Even on private land/roads, most employers may not look on an incident in a kind manner.
Depends on what it's attached to..... :dribble:If there's one thing you don't want to hit ton-up it's a dick...Out here we have quite a variety of "varmints" that occupy/share our riding environs (particularly on land around power plants and public utility sites that provide a protected area), from aves like wild turkeys, quail, dicks, geese and pea-fowl to jackrabbits, skunks, opossums, raccoons, fox, and "antlered forest rats".
