    so today when i was coming home from shopping at the dollar tree i was hit. not too bad but bad enough. i was going down broadway and this lady took a right onto grand right in front of me. i got flipped off my bike and landed a few feet away. i got up and the lady pulled over and after checking my bike out i asked for her info which she gave me. after about 5 minutes i hear sirens and all of a sudden one of those giant fire trucks shows up and start asking all of theses questions. then 2 cops show up and also start to ask questions. then one cop leaves and the paramedics arrive. the cops sends them away cause i wasnt that badly hurt. the cop is asking me questions and then starts to ask about my bike. i just kept thinking to myself, please dont check if i have a brake, please dont ask if i have a brake. he didnt ask. the cop takes like ten minutes and then i left. my right arm is a little scraped and my left knee is pretty swollen. my bike is fine ecept the left of my fork is all black where she hit me. oh and i had my helmet on. it sucked and now im all sore.

    i can do that too, i read about it on wikipedia

  3.  

    Well shit. That sucks. Glad you're not hurt too bad. I'd get that forked checked out though, i can't imagine having a car hit it was good for it.

  4.  

    probably not, but it was my pista. ill probably get it checked anyways, im tryna get some skrilla if its broke.

  5.  

    to tepr, im not letting you do acupunture if you have only read about on the interwebz

    fuck dude, it's dangerous out there lately!

    sorry to hear about your collission bro. you may want to eye the fork pretty closely as they're not too hard to get bent. get well soon, i guess we can start a road rash club or something/.

    Ugh, everyone is getting hit. Glad to hear you're ok.

    I'd get the frame alignment checked at a shop.

    thanks stumptown, a support group would be better. learning to ride a bike and acupuncture are way different

    support group will consist of pounding beers and hollering at girls on bikes.

    nothing takes the pain away like a steady steam of beers.

    p.s. yeah definitely good call on the helmet. i want to get one that fits my head better and start riding with one more often.

    Me and Jonah ran into him yesterday as we were going opposite ways, he said he had some kind of collission but it wasn't too bad. He doesn't really post on here anymore though so ask him for the full story. He wasn't injured and his bike was fine, but he went down nonetheless.
