I guess if you are hunting in Africa you need to use the right decoys.

Nothing funnier than watching sheeple being taken out by a fellow herbivore....

That's hilarious! You don't see that kind of footage on The Disney Channel!

Ironically, his jersey shows a sponsorship by Jeep - I'd be trading that bike for a Jeep, Land Rover, or UniMog out in that part of the world.

I would definitely have needed to change my pants 
There is no graceful way to be tackled by an antelope... but at least he can tell his friends he's on the internet!

Talk about a deer in the headlights...wow
Given the audacity of bicyclists in the city, maybe it's possible to import some of those antelope.

I don't know what is about Bicyclists and Bikers on the road and their sense of look out for me. Don't get me wrong, I do watch out for them and go out of my way to make things easy for them.
BUT, that being said, Bikers and cyclists need to remember that the Vehicle Code does not negate the Laws of Physics. A 25 pound bicycle or a 750 pound motorcycle will lose everytime to a 4000 pound car or an 80,000 pound diesel rig. Being right or wrong has nothing to do with whether someone survives or not...

A friend was riding her brand new Honda home and an 8pt stepped out in the road and challenged her. Rammed the front forks and broke his neck/dead.
She had just enough time to hit the brakes but still highsided. Caught a good road rash and broke a couple ribs..
All at 15 mph..

That was awesome! Here in LA, bikers have a huge attitude about people not respecting them and "sharing the road." I think they're crazy for riding in the city.

I had a motorcycle once - after being run off the road twice, I sold it - I discovered that if you're on a bike (bicycle or motorcycle) and in an accident, you'll be the first one to the scene of that accident.
