funrider Posted June 26, 2008 #1 Posted June 26, 2008 A ex work associate and friend, (Paul), that lives in Whapeton Nd. and works in Fargo, about 50 miles, was on his way home from work Wed. morning at about 4:20 am when he hits a dear. he was thrown form the bike and the bike slid into the ditch, while he slid to a stop on the road. Another friend of mine, (Brad), that I work with gets of work the same time as me and he works in Whapeton and lives in the direction of Fargo, and he heads for home, he runs over something laying on the road and turns around to see what he had just run over and finds it was his friend, (Paul). I don't know if Paul was dead from the accident with the dear or if he was killed by being ran over with a 1994 chev pickup. I will miss riding with Paul, but I almost feel more sorry for Brad, I would rather be the one dead than to run over a friend of mine. My prayer go out to both Paul,s family as well as for Brad.
Eck Posted June 26, 2008 #2 Posted June 26, 2008 ouch...what a sad story my friend...but I do agree with you ..my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Mariner Fan Posted June 26, 2008 #3 Posted June 26, 2008 Wow, that is one tragic story. Brad is going to need counseling after that. My thoughts and prayers for all of you.
KingSizer Posted June 26, 2008 #6 Posted June 26, 2008 Sometimes you just have to ask yourself WHY? God sure does work in mysterious ways...
SaltyDawg Posted June 26, 2008 #7 Posted June 26, 2008 What a tragedy. My thoughts and prayers go out to all. What a shame.

86Royale Posted June 26, 2008 #9 Posted June 26, 2008 Sorry to hear that. Really hits home, I ride my bike back and forth between Pembina and Grand Forks for work, everyone be careful out there.
PBJ Posted June 26, 2008 #10 Posted June 26, 2008 When our time comes may we all go doing what we Love. Sympathies to your friend and his family!
Orrin Posted June 27, 2008 #11 Posted June 27, 2008 I am very sorry to hear about Brad and Paul. Please watch for deer. I have been seeing dead deer in places I have not seen them before. Ride safe all!
Guest BigJohnD Posted June 27, 2008 #12 Posted June 27, 2008 When our time comes may we all go doing what we Love. Sympathies to your friend and his family! I cannot add much to this...sums it up for me.

sarges46 Posted June 27, 2008 #14 Posted June 27, 2008 North Dakota, besides Wisconsin, has got to have to most deer in the world it seems. I run highway 2 at least twice a year from Rugby eastward and the deer at dusk and dawn are unbelievable! Devils Lake area is probably the worst of all. So sorry for you and your friends....what a terrible thing to happen. Are thoughts are with all the families.
Silver Bullet Posted June 27, 2008 #15 Posted June 27, 2008 prayers going out from us , god bless you all
