Try to message druidh directly. He got attack by a chicken too. Ok it was a rubber chicken and it was in a LBS.
heh. nice.
There's a lot of pheasants around here, they're raised in captivity and then released for shooting, I've had loads of near misses with them flying out in front of me (sometimes at 40+mph)is the gamekeeper responsible for them? where would you draw the line?
A rabbit runs out of a farm gate, its OK, a chicken, its not?
I think the only safe answer is; ride at such a speed that allows you to safely avoid collisions.
If you want to ride faster, be prepared to pay the price.
Good grief, is this thread still running?
Yes, unlike the chicken, he is posting on chickentrakcoup.
Got hit by a bike, can I claim against cyclist
Are any of the scuffed components actually broken/unrideable?
I realise that shouldn't affect whose to blame, but just interested
where would you draw the line?
Between captive and wild I should think - quite simple really. Pheasants - wild (unless they're still being raised, or the gamekeeper releases them right in front of you), chickens - captive.
I once had a herd of sheep run into the road right in front of me (we stayed upright) - is the farmer not responsible for them either?
bet it was some guy on an MTB going through the farm at speed, that made the chickens scatter
Looks like the thread has gone the way of the chicken
