    All of them at some stage.

    When travelling on bike through Oz I was told to stop riding at dusk as it was the time when it got a little cooler and the roos came out. Could not se the reason... before I got up to past Carnarvon in WA. Was happily riding on a looooong straight and suddenly had something whack in to my leg from the side. I went wobbling all over the show, but managed to stay on the wheels. When I got the bike stopped I looked around and did see this fucking big roo standing by the side of the road. After that I stopped riding when the sun started to go down.

    May the bridges I burn light the way.

    years and years ago now a rabbit one night while riding home very drunk..at least I hope it was a rabbit, was out by the cemetary at Paeroa.
    Worst was recently getting a bumble bee wedged up my trou. Damn thing managed to get right up onto my inner thigh where it proceeded to bite me several times. SOunds funny and no doubt it was hilariously funny to watch rapid stop bike, hurl strides off and stand around in undies and boots trying to work out what had happend. It bloody well hurt and the bruising was spectacular. I don't mind a friendly nibble on the inner thigh, but....

    No story. I was not paying sufficient attention and hit (ran over actually) an octopus. Fortunately it was a small one.

    Hit heaps of birds. A rabbit, a cat down my street. Some fences, a couple of cars. Loads of bugs..

    Then I hit 200 on the way home, so I could hit my wife.

    MURDERER

    I can tell you that pre-flatened possums mid way through a corner are fun to ride over

    Small bird of unknown origin on my knee. Many close shaves with birds.

    Worst thing I have ever run over though was a few ducklings But that was in my car and I am over it now

    Had most things... birds to the helmet and chest (chest protectors are damn handy) possums, hedgehogs (bloody sleeping in the road on corners) and rabbits several times over, including once hitting my leg when it was really sunburnt (that one fucken hurt).

    Also hit the road several times... sealed and gravel, I don't disciminate

    Rode right into a laser beam once, although that wasn't too bad. What really sucked was the bugga at the other end. He really fucked up my day.

    Speaking of hitting things, I came across this video the other day...


    Ran over this bunny not long ago, I tried to resuscitate it but didn't work...

    I can remember hitting the road and sliding up a bank while watching my bike slide into a caravan.
