I had much the same with a little 5' gator. Talk about an adrenaline rush, but it fortunately ended well.I was hauling ass on my motorcycle in the mountains headed from the bar to the store to pick up a 6 pack before they cut sales off at 2AM. Came around a corner and a family of racoons is sashaying across the road in a line. I got stopped before damaging them or myself. Took a minute to get the seat out of my ass pucker...
