Ran over a hare today

[schofield14]

finally got my 172 on the road this week since buying it as a project a month ago, driving down the road and a huge hate ran straight under the front breaking the underside of the bumper where it goes to ye sub frame and ripping inner right arch out! B*****d

Hit a rabbit last night, apart from the massive bang no damage to the car that I can see. Might be different when I wash it, but seems to just have hit the splitter quite hard and the splitters pretty bendy. Poor little rabbit. Ran off into the grass so didn't kill it, I hope!

Hit a Robin the other day doing 90mph, it looked like it had been sucked through a vacuum and plugged the hole on my grill. Its little robin face looking at me accusingly as its guts dripped down my rad. I felt tremendously guilty. Then a few minutes later a squirrel did the matrix through the wheels of a Hilux doing 40. Made it through in one piece.

I hit one in my 200 not long after I got it.

Tried everything to miss it, but still spanked the poor thing.

Spent about 30 mins using the pressure washer at a remote petrol station in the small hours of the morning getting all the blood off the side of my car & bits of bugsy out of my rear diffuser.

I once went out a drive after cleaning/waxing my car, came haring round a corner and hit a couple of small birds, the guts were actually beading up the bonnet haha

Hare today gone tomorrow.
At least with legged animals they tend to stay on ground n just clout splitters or wheels.
I'd had my new Volvo 2 weeks when a pheasant flew out and caused £1500 quids worth of damage.

 

[LiamR172]

Should have left the pheasant there. Looks good

I drew some rabbits on the head of a bald guy at work the other day.


...from a distance they looked like hares.

Last week. Got 2 in one go. 1 hit underneath :/ got some right looks from oncoming cars and pulled up to see this!

I hit a fox whilst driving my old mans brand new fiesta back in 2006. He went mental at me shouting it was my fault and i should have seen it!lol. Was doing 40 in a 40 zone and it flew out from the side, with the worst possible timing, in the dark! He also didn't see it!lol.

He's probably still laying in a ditch now licking his wounds/broken legs in absolutely agony.

It was one of those:
"I'm sure a bird flew past my front end?! I didn't see it come out the other side..... I wonder if I hit it?"
Yeah I definitely hit it!

My dad's mate had a robin and a crow sucked into his impreza scoop and splattered all over engine within a week of another. He's had imprezas for 10 years and never had anything in the scoop, then had 2 in a week! [emoji5]

I was following (chasing) a brand new CBR 1000 RR at about 120mph (opps) and this pigeon flew across the road and hit the front of the motor bike exploding, it smash the chaps head light, he was covered in blood guts and feathers.... awsum....

 

[dann2707]

Don't be a dick.

 

[JW-172]

I've seen a crow come into contact with the grill of a mondeo at 80mph on the A38. The results were.....interesting. Needless to say the guy needed a new grill

@The Fatty rocked up to a rolling road day a while back after having hit a badger - there was hair all over the back of his car! Grim.

I once saw what I thought was a leaf in the road. On approach I noticed it was a small bird. Then it tried to fly away when it noticed me coming up fast, all happened too quickly. Heard it bashing under the car and when I stopped I had blood all over my rear wheel. No pics though unfortunately.

 

[Andyman]

I bet this one stung a bit

That horse made himself look a right arse.

Why would you even bother trying to play with a fireblade lol.

Those RBR stickers must make it as fast as the F1 cars, A litre superbike must be easy game for it

 

[Strettman]

this one was caused by a hare at 2am christmas day last year, i wasn't a happy bunny to say the least! all i saw was a tiny hare run out on the road then quite a thud as it snapped my carbon splitter clean into 2 and shattered my front bumper. 2 months and £400 later it was back to normal.

 

[dann2707]

Did he have insurance?

 

[markclio]

i must off forgotten I wasn't on my bike... cbr 600 rr..... you cant tell me you haven't raced something you would never keep up with.....
