Turkey hit @ 45MPH

 

This was from a short ride with our grandson. Following a few cars @ 45MPH on a local two lane road, the turkey hen hit the right edge of my home made aero shield. It deflected the bird up and brushed over Jake's head and hit the roll bar. It landed behind him on the rear storage cover. It stayed there for the ride home. The aero shield was made with 3/16th polycarbonate and took the hit very well. Life in the country!

Wow! Your grandson was very lucky he didn't take that turkey in the face. Happy to see everyone but the turkey survived uninjured.

 

Are you going to cook the turkey?

 

Will the grandson be willing to ride in the Seven again?

Skip, I've never known you to drive 45mph. You must be getting old!!!!! TeeHee. I,too, am glad he is OK. Russ

Wasn't me that hit the turkey at 45 mpg. I do drive 45 sometimes, when I go through it accelerating or decelerating. :D

I can't get the granson out of the 7, he loves it.

 

I told the wife to get started on the turkey, she told me ****.

 

Thanks, we were lucky Jake is still below the windscreen due to his size.

 

Jake said Cameron needs to come back for a visit, he enjoyed it. He thinks Cameron needs an A/C ride, and there are still some things for Cameron to see. We could take them on an canoe ride.

 

Jake likes both the 7 & the A/C, he has been doing rolls now for about a year, not in the 7 though. All I get to do is the landings anymore when he is here.
