Holy crap! I'm soo glad you're ok'ish!! Please please don't let this stop you from riding again in the future. Keep us updated...I'll be thinking about you. 😢
@@bluesriderDF I completely get it. I have never been in an accident severe enough to bruise more than my ego, but once one happened under my watch. I was the riding instructor, and a left turner wiped out my gf of the time. She went over the hood of the car, and the bike followed and landed on her. As an added touch of irony, there was some kind of advertisement poster right next to the accident scene, that used the word bullseye, as main attention grabber. Even though she got away from it with only bruises and was unshaken and back on the bike next week, I relived the incident for several nights. I actually think I took it harder than she did.
Man, I had probably 5+ close calls with deer and baby fawn this month, and I've seen probably 30 near the road. I'm questioning if this hobby is worth the risk anymore. If it's not the roads and other drivers it's something else making it dangerous. Get well.
I didn't start riding until I was 49, and it's the most enjoyable thing I do. I wish I started earlier in life. I've always said I hope I can ride for a long time before I'm too feeble to hold up a bike. But where I live in Northeast PA, deer are everywhere. I've had several close calls myself. It's already a somewhat dangerous hobby, but when you add in possible collusion with a 100-150 pound animal jumping in front of you, it's only a matter if time before one takes you down.
Ah man. I watch your channel all the time. You're a great dude. Hope you get back on your horse soon man. I'm also from NEPA . It's a battle with those things here. Prayers for you brother.
Glad you're okay! May I use this video in my next episode? Watermarked and linked to your channel ofc
No, thank you
@@bluesriderDF Sure thing. No worries. Let me know if you change your mind.

Thanks sooo much Dave!!
Hate them damn ditch rats! Heal up fast brother. I know it's early, but any thoughts on a replacement bike?
Regards, Dynamick from HDF.
Oof. Glad to see you’re still here to tell. Hope you fully recover soon!
Thanks so much. Still healing, but I've gotten back on the horse!
So sorry to hear that, hope you heal fast and get back on soon! Too bad you can't sue the dear!
Thanks my friend! After 9 years, the takedown happened. Right now I'm just trying to heal.
Wow! Unfortunate but still lucky I'd say. Could've gone so much worse. Hope you recover fast and heal well.
Thanks so much! 30 days today, itching to ride again.
Oh wow! 😮
Hope you recover soon 😬
Thanks so much. It's gonna be a little while 🤬
Oh man, that really sucks. But I’m glad to see that you are all right.
Thanks so much. It happened so fast, I'm still trying to wrap my head around it.
Great to see you were fully geared up. Get well soon
Thanks guys!
Hate it when that happens. Shot 16 videos riding in the mountains yesterday, Always thinking about it. Deer whistles....maybe.
I like this solution

@@bluesriderDF We think a lot alike
@@bluesriderDFya that only works if you see them coming.
Could not have been easy, reliving that, when editing the video.
You are right! As weird as it sounds, I was actually afraid to watch it.
