Deer Season!

Just got back form a nice 100 mile ride through Amsih country, mid Ohio. I'm always cautious watching for buggys, tourists, and the occasional "animal". Today at high noon, after cresting a hill and heading into a downward left hander, I spotted a deer running full tilt along a tree line heading across the road 100 yards ahead of me. I down shifted and got on the brake just as the second popped put of the woods directly in front of me. I still had enough time to avoid any dangerous situation, but darn if those things don't always pop up when I'm not in my tree stand:) Always remeber when you see one, others are certain to be nearby.
