So Sunday I'm riding home after a great day of  [moto]. 

Nice winding roads over hilly country  [moto]. 

Getting close to home now  [moto]. 

I'm approaching a long, sweeping right-hander (remember we drive on the left Down Here), a right-hander that curves up a fairly steep hill.....  [moto]

And I can see it looming down the hill towards me.  Really fast.   :o.

High speed B-Double cattle truck, tyres surely at the limit of adhesion.  Hey but I'm in control.  Alert but not completely alarmed  ;).  Truck zooms past me - as it should on my right.  So nope, all's well, I didnt shit myself.  8)

I didnt need to. 

The truck was obviously laden.  Coz as it drew level with me I got covered in cow shit.  I mean  c o v e r e d  .  Sprayed like it was comin' from a fire hose.  First I needed to clear my visor  [puke], second needed to steady the bike on the shit-slick now covering my side of the road surface.  :-X

My leathers still stink.  I guess the cows got revenge.  [laugh]

wow, that must be a first. there should be a thread about "the most disgusting thing i rode through..." 

I think we have one now.... [puke]

Befestulated by a cattle carrier.... [clap] [clap] [clap] I applaud your presence of mind and good sense in your decision not to turn around and pursue the offending vehicle

In the last couple of weeks I have been stuck behind a garbage truck, a dump truck carrying fresh asphalt, and big rig hauling pigs....I did not get any on me. Thank you for the new perspective.  ;)

Wow.. wow - yuck.

The smell of hot Turkey farms last week was enough for me... Can't imagine being coated in it...

That would suck but things could have been a lot worse.
Glad youre ok and able to type about the nastiness.

But are you wise in the ways of science?      ???

Paging He Man.  Please report to this thread.

Cow shit versus Chinatown grease.  Fight!

that is freaking HILARIOUS oh man.  [laugh]  but  [puke]

there are a lot of cows  around here, so i'm not going further with this .. karma and all the way it is

 



   I have been lucky to not have that experiance, but.. I was riding with a Friend thru Lamar Colo. who had a cow piss on Him while sitting at a stop light, I was laughing so hard I about fell off the bike. Stock Trailers of any kind are out to get Ya' [bang]

Obviously not.  Explain again how sheep's bladders may be employed to prevent earthquakes?

Yup. A lot worse indeed.

Not presence of mind.  I was just so relieved (not as relieved at the cows, obviously) that my Close Encounter of the Turd Kind proceeded without collision, lasting injury or me joining the "bringout yer dead" roll-call, that a mere shit-shower seemed like icing on the cake of survival.  Never even entered my head to offer shit-hot pursuit.

German cows are innovative too.  I'd carry coconuts when you next ride, for protection.  ;D

Where's the pics?  [laugh]

Be glad they weren't Pigs...they stink the worst !

Dolph     :)

Certainly you are qualified to be the king of something lol  -  That sucks -  it reminds me of the time I had just bought a new car and on the way home thought it must be raining...  but there were not any clouds.  Kind of a nasty rain... and by the time I got home it had dried to a muddy finish.  My new car lost that new car smell.
