Guardian Angel Bell worked today!

I had a bit of excitement today on the way in to work. I ran over a deer on the highway at 70 mph, and am here to tell you about it.
The deer had just been hit a couple minutes prior to me arriving and the plane was covered in blood and guts, I didn't see it until the last second because of a semi truck near me. I rode through the greasy guts, and then hit the carcass, the bike jumped into the air a bit and went a couple feet sideways, but I kept it upright.
Anyways I just want to thank Chris Gray monkeyman for sending me my guardian angel bell! It works, someone was definitely watching over me today.

Greetings,
Wow, excellent skills coupled with the doubled power of a gifted gremlin bell! Glad that is ALL there is to that story and you and the bike are OK. Next bike bath might be a little more... greesy...


(Keep) riding safe,
Smokier
