never had a ride quite like it!!

Heading along the road a and a bloody magpie smacked into my head!!
half an hour later a black bird does the same, ( this time at 150)
and then, I kid you not!!! another fucking magpie smacks into the bike (still 150)
The feathers got jammed so far in that I have to unswrew me bloody mirror to get them out.And I got blood on me left glove.

then to top the whole day off I get back to find that the scott oiler was on prime, the bottles nearly empty and there's oil all over the back tire!!!

for F**ks sake!:mad:

Blimey!

Well done for surviving all that. Could have been quite a different post.

At least we know you have reduced the bird population by 3 making it safer for the rest of us :ar15:

wholy shit! Must have had agro bird hormone all over you which attracted some more! haha I'm pretty sure a bird doesn't detect that 50km over the limit and dive bomb him because of it...

Maybe your bike is really shiny and they were all attracted to it?

Mayhap there's something weird about your helmet or visor that's attracting or dazzling them. Mirrored visor?

I’ve had similar whilst living in Gisborne, birds might be getting drunk of fruit or something?
They come out of nowhere and head straight at you??

If you figure out how to kill myna birds with a vehicle, please let me know the secret.
I've been trying for bloody years.

The best I can do is to honk the horn as the fuckers casually walk out of the way. Scares the crap out of them. Little bastards. :ar15:

I've been hit by two birds but i'd rather have the birds anyday than the bee that got me in the neck. Felt like someone shot me , little pollen eating fuckers :mad:

I had a big mothertrucker bug splat itself all over my visor, then I did the dumbarse act of smudging it round and around, and maybe round again. :dodge:

It's good exercise dodging bugs in the night time though, you'll just look like an insane cock as you do it.

Being in west auckland I would expect the only things you have to dodge at night are bogans but bees can bee pretty hazardous, too. Maybe they thought the oil was melting pollen?

It happens.....
Have had more bumble bees than I can remember. Make a heck of a whack on the visor, and turn to a watery smudge.
Birds can do anything from bounce off your screen, to take out your mirror, or even smack you in the throat! Not Nice!

I have had to Duck for a duck once.... Yep, misjudged her climb out rate....

The worst has to be the rabbit strike in the shoulder!
Yep, one of those heavy lift jobbies.... a Hawk, was lifting off the road with it's lunch, when a younger quickbuck comes flying down the road, and it run out of power on takeoff.... Could have been due to hot and humid conditions... Or it could have been it didn't realise the CBR400 would be doing Mach 2!
Any-case quickbuck ended up with a bit of a rabbit stew, that farmer Brown started making for the Hawk the night before, all over his left shoulder....
