    A drunken pensioner stepped out in front of my bike many years ago. I swerved one way, he stepped back, I hit him and he went over my handlebars. He suffered no more than bad bruising but I insisted they breathalysed him at the scene. Not as rare as the cow/partridge/dog/deer incidents above but quite scary all the same (for me anyway).

    A few years back, I had a pigeon hit me full in the face when on the bike….Dave ducked and it hit me, was on the back, at the time I had a pi*s pot helmet with clear visor…. it broke the visor! Was going too fast to see how the pigeon faired.

    My sister rode her Honda C90 into a medieval castle in Northumberland. Full storey in Members Bikes “A Hell of a way to Scramble Eggs”.

    I had a women walk into my path whilst riding my RD250LC in Brum many years ago, and a mate had a female Salvation Army collector knock him off his Z250 on Erdington High Street (Birmingham, UK) and they wound up entangled on top of each other!

    Slipped on wet leaves in autumn one year, kept my GSX1100F up though, all 255kgms.
    Woman drove into me on my Honda 250N superdream.
    Woman drove in to me on my 1100
    Ran over a dog that was chasing me on the 250N
    Old man drove into the back of me whilst on my first bike Honda C70
    Killed a bee with my left nipple whilst riding back from Rhyl to Liverpool in just T-shirt and cut down jeans, silly boy! It was like being shot with a paint ball round.
    Killed a pigeon in my Cortina
    Killed a pheasant with my DAF variomatic
    2 lads on a pushbike collided with the side of my Cortina and somersaulted over the bonnet, all the passers by thought I’d hit them!?
    Hit a woman crossing the road on the 250N, she was at a pelican crossing along with 30 other people at lunchtime in Liverpool city centre and she stepped out in front of me, she just got spun around and was OK, “you spin me right round baby like a record machine, right round….”
    Oh, and I reckon I’ve killed 1,235,462 flies since I’ve been riding bikes, and 1 moth.

    A woman with mental problems attacked my car once. I was driving home, saw this woman running into the road being pursued by 2 guys in white coats. I sounded my horn to warn her and she jumped across the bonnet of my car lie she was possessed, smashing the side mirror and breaking the aerial. Didn’t have the heart to claim damages from anyone.

    One time while travelling across Brum, made a wrong turning,ended up in a housing estate and was stopped by a large coloured guy in an oversized trenchcoat who wanted to flog me a Max Bygraves LP without its jacket and scratched to b*ggery. I must be a bit magnet!

    @Born2B – Thought there was going to be a punchline on that one!

    @Scouser – A DAF Variomatic? You’ve got to be kidding me!!
