Watch the exciting video as a squid nearly goes body surfing down the
road:

No exaggerations.  Everything you see is real.  That's how fast
disaster can strike.  And I was rolling off the throttle when I
spotted the deer.  Normally they just stand there.  But sometimes they
do something completely stupid.

I've never locked up my front wheel before.

So while he's under emergency braking with a locked up front wheel, YOU
want him to veer to the right!!!!

Yeah, Right!




Re-run the video and look at the blur of the power poles and scenery,
that should give an indication of how fast he was going....as in not
excessive!

  Have you ever even *seen* a deer[1] or a motorcycle?
