So, there I was

[JohnTRourke]

Riding my HD fat boy with the stroker motor, zipping down the highway in the foothills and this whole herd of deer run right across the road, right in front of me. I darn near put it down, but keep the bike up right, literally bouncing from one deer to the next and halfway thru this herd, as i"m rapidly slowing, a semi-truck comes the other way!!!. I lock the rear wheels up and literally slide back into my lane, doing it dirt track style to keep the bike up to avoid the semi. It hits like 3 deer and their guts explode all over me. I stay upright, get thru the herd of deer and just as I start to catch my breath, get it stopped and find a shoulder to clean the guts off of me, this crazy mother f*cker in a Prius rolls up behind me and starts yelling at me. Telling me I am some kind of bambi killer. I start to reach under my jacket for one of my twin customized Detonics, but then realize I'm on a bike and Prius's only go like 20mph. So I take off and not 100 feet down the road a goddamn badger runs out and starts attacking me. Literally biting at my ankle and finally getting a chunk out. I managed to choke down a couple vicaden and wrap it on the side of the road to keep the blood down, but it still blew up like a balloon. (oh yeah, one dead badger too, one round of 230 grains of jacketed hollow points to the neck.)

And that is why my ankle is blown up to the size of a grapefruit.





or
Perhaps, I walked out my back door Sunday afternoon and twisted the motherfucker for no reason at all and fell on my fat ass as it popped to a nice handy painful 90 degrees.

But I like the first story better. [Coffee]

[Bailey Guns]

You had me hook, line and sinker right up til the badger part. Funny story anyway!

[Cman]

That was good! A nice story to end the day with.

[DSB OUTDOORS]

[ROFL1] [LOL] [Worth]

[BPTactical]

I call BS.

If it would have started with:

"It was a nice sunny day. After planting new posies in the flower box and walking my ShitZu I decided to ride my baby blue Vespa down to Starbucks for a latte caramel mint cinnamon frappe I got my sandal caught under the yoga mat somebody had carelessly laid on the floor of the sauna next door. I pulled my big toenail..................."

I would have believed it.




Bummer deal Brian- bum ankles suck. At least you never got a slap shot from 6' away right on the ankle bone. I had a bruise for 2 months.

[sneakerd]

Good story- but the badger just took it one step too far!!![ROFL1]

when I was in Jr High we had a street hockey league. (you know, with the round rubber balls, that get rock freaking hard when cold)

I played defenseman.

Bambi killer.....

[sniper7]

So how many deer we're in the herd?
Did you call DOW?
How long ago the meat might still be fresh

Also was it one of the new prius?

[USMC 2111]

Killer bike story.

[Jer]

I knew right away it was BS due to personal & first hand motorcycle v deer experience. Nice try though.

OH come on
I hit and killed a deer (big fugger too) head on with my BMW R1100RT.
Never went down.

true story
Total and complete luck, I never knew what was happening. Actually rode the 500 miles home the next day.

But did you hit three?

I hit a full size doe with my 1999 GSX-R750 back in 1999 and not only did I not keep it upright the deer and the bike pretty much both exploded. Didn't help that I was traveling in excess of 120mph but that's another thread entirely. [Tooth]

Try it sometime... it's a blast! [ROFL3]

How is the ankle anyways? Getting around any better? The swelling go down at all?

[Jer]

OP: If it makes you feel any better the last time I sprained my ankle was while playing a track & field game against my mother on my Xbox Kinect at home. Talk about embarrassing. The one before that was during a precision rifle competition down at the Whittington Center in Raton NM. At least that one had a little more manly story behind it.

[Veritas]

Was the badger a honey badger?
