    Roo dead as a doornail it was only about a 4 1/2 foot tall roo but shock and adrenalin do funny things I was pretty ****ed off at the roo who bounded away from me as I committed to the Rt hander then Flippin' heck did a u-bolt straight into my front wheel, so I grabbed it around the throat one handed shook the beegeezers out of it then tossed it away like a rag doll.
    After which things got painful so I stood the bike up and laid down beside it, it was night, a very isolated road 20 k's south of Mullewa on the Mullewa/Morowa rd a real backwater place but luckily a car came along after the bus that shot passed never stopping, got the bike going he road it back to the farm and I drove his ute.
    Ended up in Hospital but that's another tale!
