    Ended up with a tail slash to the leg which is still sore a month later. Insurance covered everything and bike is on way to recovery. Taking a bit longer as parts are hard to source.

    Roos are an absolute shit of a thing, had a mate hit one a couple of years ago and he will never be able to ride again, his elbow was smashed in so many places they are still looking for bits of it, scourge of the Aussie motorcyclist

    Our equivalent in the US are deer. When I'm on the bike, my head is on a swivel looking for them especially during hunting season.

    It was funny when I was in Australia a few years back. I was there for work. My co-worker and I saw a kangaroo and thought it was so cool. When the employees of the company we were at came out to the back deck they just laughed at us like we were idiots.
