Default Ouch!

Riding to work yesterday when the lady in the red honda decides to pull out in front of me from a parking lot trying to turn left. No broken bones, no internal bleeding so I'm good there. Think something is messed up in my shoulder, so I'll try to see an ortho this week. Of course she said she didn't see me! Stay safe out there my friends!

Never mind you, how's the BIKE? JK and hope you are okay. I was hit about 6 weeks ago in my work truck from behind and neck is still bothering me. Need to get to the doctor myself.

Don't know the status of the bike. The shop it was taken to isn't open until Tuesday. I'll go over then and see how bad it is.

I wish these greasy politicians who want to pass any stupid law they can, if they think it will result in even a single extra vote, would do something about these distracted drivers!!!
But I won't hold my breath. Glad your OK.

Glad you weren’t injured more badly. You have to be constantly ready to deal with others stupidity when riding...
