I just had my first and hopefully last wreck today. A lady pulled out in front of me and due to traffic there was nowhere to go but down. Bike sustained hopefully minor damage and no broken bones!! God Loves Me

I am going to hurt for a few days, but I walked away and therefore it is a GOOD DAY!!! My helmet saved my head but especially my full face shild saved my face because I slid down the highway on the side of my helmet at road level.... hummm, I should have had a camera

Sorry to bother you, ladies, but I just wanted to wish Rebecca a fast recovery. Please get back on that bike as soon as it's fixed!

Thank you ZT. I am not sure how bad the bike is, but the Lady's insurance should cover it to be fixed if possible

I am so sorry that happened to you! I'm glad you're only sore and nothing worse.

Good to hear you are alright...that's the #1 priority. Sore & stiff will certainly go away thank goodness. Hope you are still in positive spirits and that your bike will be good to go in no time.

Take care.

Glad to hear that you are fine. Hope your up and back out on the bike soon. A camera view would have been interesting but Im sure your going to remember it for a while.

Thanks everyone!! Tomorrow is going to be fun I am sure, but I am well aware that I am a walking miricle. I think I am one of God's favorites LOL

There is a positive side to this....with the insurance money for your bike and for pain and suffering you can now get a blue bike.

Glad you're ok.

Glad you're OK! There's a reason to wear to gear!

You know it Strad! I will be investing in some good chaps as soon as I get the bike and me fixed

My knees are burned pretty good and one elbow where my jacket came off one arm. One hand is in a splint because they think I snapped a tendon in the back of my hand, but I don't know how bad the bike is until someone who knows what they are doing looks at it

But I will be back on the road someday .
