No, because paint and tanks for that matter don't last very long so far. Nor helmets.
Also its not always the same bike that gets struck. So its my jacket scars and x-rays that record the trophies collected. I've seen a decal kit of various animal shaped stickers, with X's for eyes. Nothing to ride this season so didn't notice the goats also got my RH boot, ankle area seam torn open. Hope its repairable. The 1st deer and this last goat did get eaten. Took 6 weeks for 2nd really big doe to disappear as reminder, eaten, dismembered, flesh decayed to soil and bones scattered. Animals may well be the end of my riding era, while still alive, to get some flavor how serious a dilemma and wasted everything striving for a good performing Cdo.
Today glanced at radio an instant, on looking back at road [Gravel 3 rut lane]
saw a buck's butt just clearing my lane before car got there. No defense possible
but to stay off cycles. I keep reliving some the strikes - thinking if I'd just had more speed might have ridden right over them as did the big doe at 75mph. ugh.
