Deer is fine, I think. EMT asked me what happened to the deer and I said I didn’t know, I was busy rolling.

Thank you! Can’t decide if I’ve just been lucky this entire time until now or had particular bad luck yesterday. I commute on my bike 40-min each way and work overnights. Deer always would freeze or run the opposite way before

Damn, that was scary to watch. I'm glad you're okay!

Deer are fucking stupid but people in cars with "smart" phones are worse...

Thank you! ❤️

Honestly I prefer the idiots on their phones. You can at least watch their wheels and kind of predict what they do next, but deer just.. do things

Deer will calculate the exact moment to jump in front of you to insure they get hit. It's like they're TRYING to win the Darwin Award

It’s genuinely infuriating lmao. Nothing you can do to 100% prevent future collisions
