    It was Troy Corser in the second race at Phillip Island he later toured around after securing the WSB championship. Few years before that Colin Edwards had an almighty smack with a seagull that smashed his screen and fairing but did finish on the podium to show the debris on his leathers.

    can't agree more. Holding it together rather than smashing to bits.

    I took out a pigeon out at 170 the bike seemed to suck it in and it got me on the inside of my right arm nothing left of it but as it hit the vented piece of the leathers i got a full black inner arm within two days.
