I have been hit in the face shield by a bird. It had so much force behind it that I about went off the back of the bike.

Recently, had a run in with a black bear while riding my bike. Bear got startled and ran off into the woods. Also, had a run in with a Peacock a few years back while driving the cage. Peacock was in the middle of the road in full feather regalia. The risks some birds will take for bird sex. (he almost became car-meat)

Christmas tree appeared from under the car infront... that was a shocker... not flinching or brakelight clues that the car infront was about to run over it, so I had no clue till it appeared just infront of me....

So glad I was on a very light 125cc motorcycle. Those things are great for learning on, so easy to control instinctively
