I know what you mean. I had a "moment" once lifting off... Fortunately, it ended up landing shiny side up.

I may have missed it earlier in the thread, but are you going to jump into another S?

ouch dude, animals in the road suck. And yea I do plan on getting another S2K. The unfortunate part is it might be 6 months... I think I should wait until winter is over with before getting another one.

My cousin almost went over an embankment trying to avoid a moose. The police on scene said it's better (safer) to hit the animal. Glad you are okay!
