Speed 20.1 mph
At mile 34 of a planned overnight 100 miler
4 very slow mile ride back home

p.s. the bike was fine!!!
As I read all the comments, I counted myself fortunate that my encounters with deer were when I was driving in cars.

But to me, a wild or feral hog in a car and especially a bicycle, would be very, very bad. They are nasty, compact, hard as a rock and fearless, not to mention can take a lot of punishment, which means they will want payback.
