@brianpark: Another thing you should post is Metailler’s last post where he rides down the Rampage mountain in Utah (he wasn’t at the event so he just went on his own.. epic ! )
This is also known "every single run at Snowshoe".
At Mountain Creek, the deer are black, furrier, slower, fatter and looks just like bears
At Beech Mountain, they're low to the ground, fatter, slower, look just like groundhogs (or Wilford Brimley).
At Whistler they are...no f-ing way...that's a bear. A really big bear. Seriously...I was trapped beside the G.L.C. drop in the village on Easy Does it uphill of a massive momma bear and her cub facing me. She did not move.
Almost hit a deer? Seriously? And it is a news? Wtf, where do you ride usually? Indoor?
I have had closer encounters with wildlife pretty much every week for the past X years...(deer, bore, bear, badger, fox, smaller deer, rabbit, you name it). We ride outside, and guess what, thats where animals live!
That's not "almost" by a stretch. I have deer hair on the end of my lock on from contact with a Doe's ass while coming down the trail. My friend squarely hit one laying in the trail as the others scurried in all direction. It couldn't get up in time because he's wicked fast!
Frikin' Forest Maggots belong on the plate next to the mashed potatoes, not on MTB trails!
He's right.. the deer passed about 50 feet from him.
It doesn't take away from that solid run tho!
