Killed my first prairie dog today

Ok, at least it was the first one I've killed with a motorcycle.

Stupid animals. If he stood still, he'd be safe. If he ran to the right he would have been fine. Left was the only way he could go that would have put him in harms way. Bad choice my furry little flea ridden friend. Bad choice.

Glad YOU are safe! I don't swerve for animals unless it's the safest option for the fam and I (and it rarely is).

LOL, 2 years ago I rolled over a baby prairie rat while riding a mountain bike, I heard the little bones snap. The only good one is a dead one.

It took some work, I had to catch him and he didn't make a sharp right like his siblings. Natural selection.

Yep. Definitely safer to smoke some poor critter that didn't look both ways before crossing the street than to make things worse trying to avoid it.

On a related note, I almost corn holed a lady in a Honda Accord one day when she slammed on her brakes to avoid hitting a tumble weed.

I hate when people do that.

She wouldn't last a week out east of town before someone in a cattle truck killed her.

don't swerve if it's small enough to eat in one sitting.

Was this before or after lunch and a couple beers?

Good on you for not making a bad situation worse.

Before my lunch and beers. Couldn't tell you if the p-dog ate or how much he had to drink.
