Know of one guy that had that happen except it was under a mile and the ditch wall hit him. Didn't have a mile on his new bike/helmet but the helmet did it's job and had to be replaced. It is really important to know the machine you are operating.

Welcome. Be Safe. Take an MSF course or a rider's course from your local dealer!

Sounds good. We are riding Saturday. No destination and involves creative routing (decisions made at intersection sort of thing) . You are welcome to join us.
