Damn! That sucks. looked like the guy that the bird actually hit didn't go down, that's pretty cool, sucked for the second rider though.

Hard to tell, but based on a single frame I could get of the one that wasn't hit, it looks like a goose.

Yeah, I'd agree, looks like a goose. The camera bike came damn close to hitting that one. How crazy would that have been two birds hit two bikes.
