I think this is the first time I have ever heard of a deer getting hit by a bike.

Glad to hear that you're recovering. I hope that you will be 100% one day.

Unfortunately the deer bike collision is not as uncommon as folks would hope. We have them around here including fatalities during the Sturgis Rally too. Other dust ups we've seen include a bird impaled through leathers into a biker's chest. Makes for a lousy day

And yes, I've had bikes. Too many to count, especially British Norton twins. Now in retirement I tell folks I still have a bike, just with 4 wheels and a 9k redline, called a S2000

Glad you are better. Enjoy your S. One of the closest you can get to a bike on four wheels.
Thats exactly what I tell myself when I get the urge to buy a bike.

You should legally change your name to....

First name, last name, Superleggera (titanium).

Or maybe First name, last name, GTI.

Glad you are alive to tell the tale.
