Everyone, no matter what you do, is gonna die. Eat right, exercise, dont smoke or drink, and die anyway. Now, I dont get stupid but at my age if I dont do something crazy its not because Im afraid Ill die. Its because Im afraid Ill survive. Hunting, fishing, Harley riding, bacon and eggs, red meat and potatoes, BBQ and beer. Family, friends, and America. Im gonna LIVE awhile Im here.

I dont ride outside the city limits at night here cuz they're to many deer lurking just off the road.

Stuff can happen in the blink of an eye . . . . . . and it does.
Profound. If you ride a motorcycle take these words to heart. And never, ever blink. That's why I'm 70 and no, I don't ride any more. Right...and I'm 72 bc I've never owned one. But hey.....The Lord knows when you will leave this Earth and HOW already. You have no control over that. May the 2 RIP Yeah but Im not trying to give him any suggestions.

He was driving 55 mph in the daytime in Colorado when a deer jumped off the side of the road and hit him right in the chest. He didn't have a chance. RIP Jug

I'm telling ya!! I hit one on my way back to OK from Fork back in March going 80+ Somehow it flew across my windshield and I just got him with the driver side mirror. Those things are expensive btw. If I would have hit it dead on through the windshield, it could have been scary

Can't even imagine hitting a vulture, I took a Blue Jay to the face shield of my helmet at 70 MPH and a Cardinal to the chest one time. My chest was bruised like I had been hit by a line drive baseball two days later. Both times I was covered in blood and feathers.

I knew 3 people who drowned taking a bath (not together). Doesn't keep me from bathing. Just got back from Terlingua a few days ago. Me and the Brother-n-law. Yes that brother-n-law.

Man I have come so close too many times. The Lord loves old fools on Harleys I guess. Ive ducked under a deer, dodged road gators, and managed to escape a pod crash. Dodged plenty of cars and trucks too. I did take a small road Gator on the right shin thanks to a newbie rider. Cracked my shin bone even though I had on thick leather chaps. That hurt and he heard about it.
Cast I have a short attention spa

Not me but a riding buddy of mine had a dove fly from the side and into his wifes helmet under her face shield. She almost wrecked them before he got stopped. She called her mother to come get her. She Refused to get back on then or to this day. Still funny.
