Afry 1 Posted May 8, 2014 That's sad, RIP There is a internet video of a dr400 rider getting nailed by a turkey and it knocked him off the road - be careful out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tvscum 43 Posted May 8, 2014 CAMPO (CNS) - A 45-year-old Potrero man was fatally injured in the far eastern reaches of San Diego County early today when his 2007 Harley Davidson motorcycle collided with a deer, which also died. The fatality on state Route 94 west of state Route 188 in the southern Campo area occurred around 4:45 a.m., according to California Highway Patrol Officer Kevin Pearlstein. "The motorcyclist had no time to react as a deer ran out in front of him," Pearlstein said in a statement. His name was withheld pending notification of his next of kin.

Oracle 195 Posted May 8, 2014 RIP fellow rider. I tagged a deer (while driving my Yukon) on highway 67 a couple months back and I see them all the time along Highland Valley Rd. when driving to work in the morning, so we should always keep it in the back of our minds as another reminder to be vigilant. Ride safe everyone!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulmbowers 236 Posted May 8, 2014 Interesting (and unusual) they thought it important to include the status of the deer. There's a moral equivocation there with which I'm not especially comfortable. It will go too far when it creeps into the headline. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ADV Bum 205 Posted May 8, 2014 Interesting (and unusual) they thought it important to include the status of the deer. There's a moral equivocation there with which I'm not especially comfortable. It will go too far when it creeps into the headline. Maybe they included the status of the Deer so that it explained how they knew what had happened so quickly erasing the opportunity for people to reach a wrong conclusion. RIP, prayers for the family.
