Thats a fact..Glad your OK anyway mate...i had a pigeon fly out of a hedge and hit me the side of my lid at 120MPH+ many years ago, was a close call..had a stiff nick for a few days after that one!
I've hit a pigeon in the chest before,(on a naked Bandit) and never felt it, but this is starting to ache like hell. I guess I'm going to be a bit sore in the morning.
