Fear

[Black Ice]

Where is "out of ammo"?

I checked gravel - that was what caused me to have my first low-sider on an on-ramp

Thank God for a nice soft grassy field to slide on...

I chose "Other" but I wanted an "All of the above" option.

Fear on a bike was introduced to me early.

I pull the bike out of the truck to ride around a church parking lot (maybe 10 cars in the whole lot).  I've never ridden a motorcycle, dirt bike, scooter, etc.  I'm riding around minding my own business when a car backs right out in front of me.  Instincts take over, I swerve, and go on my merry way.  I still don't think they saw me.

Gravel.
Almost killed me once.

1. Interstate riding in heavy traffic at night, in the rain. Everyone just seems to want to have a close-up look at the wet biker.

2. Getting rear ended - one time a moron in an SUV passed by me on the right about a foot away and ended up stopped with his front end about 2 feet past the car in front of me after traffic stopped suddenly due to an accident on the freeway. It was fortunate the car in front had moved as far left as he could, and I had moved from the right to the left side of the lane we were in - it gave Mr. cell-phone-using-moron-SUV pilot some run-off room.

It brought a flashback of the time my older brother got rear ended by a car - it punched the bike right out from under him, pinned him against the grill, and when the car left the road into the ditch, he dropped down in front and it just rolled over him full length.

I had more run-ins with gravel / sand / oil than any other. Bad drivers I just expect it. Deer, I only come close a few times in the many years of riding but I did see Cricket1's run-in with a deer last year at the national.

1.  Bridges with metal grating for a deck

2. Gravel - even though I'll ride my KLR distances over the stuff, including my commute to work, I doubt I'll ever be comfortable on loose gravel.

I'm pretty glad I didn't see it.  I hope someone saved the venison.

 I chose critters though any of the answers work. The one that scares me was`nt there. While cresting a blind hill I harbor this fear that a farmer will be backing a load of hay out onto the roadway. Maybe after I get a little more experiance I wont worry so much.

Aliens. I'm constantly looking over my shoulder wondering if there is a spaceship hovering nearby. What is it with them and their damn anal probes anyway?

Nah, we had other concerns. Besides, the deer was toast.

Saw this today, and the colors were interesting. Then I realized it was the enemy... (leading with 33.5%)
