Title: Motorcyclist killed by a deer.......
Post by: GrainfedMuley on July 26, 2009, 09:52:53 AM: Oregon City, A motorcyclist was hit by a deer and killed in the crash east of Oregon City Saturday. Clackamas County Sherriffs and firefightters were called to south Chalet drive at Fischer's Mill just after 11:30 am. Two bicyclists who saw the crash said the deer jumped out into the road and hit the motorcycle, sending it into a stand of mailboxes. Kevin Shawn Kenville, 42, of Portland died at the scene. The bicyclists said the motorcycle nearly hit them. No one else was hurt. Deputies said that he was visiting his mother, who lived close by. The deer was also killed in the collision.

Got this off of another forum this morning............

I work in a hospital and it is full of motorcycle wrecks from spring till early fall. Sad to see so many lives affected by riding bikes.
