That sucks

Submitted by AlM on 04/02/2008.

This just happened to my friend a couple days ago on his road bike, A guy dozed off at the wheel and ran into his back wheel. The wheel is completly shredded the derailer is broken and one of the drop outs is broken. Not as bad as yours, But the guys gonna buy him a new bike so he dosent have to deal with insurance shit.

here's the deal:

Submitted by shablack on 10/21/2007.

I was on my bike traveling in the right lane of three on my way home from work. i was pedaling past a side street which is actually an on ramp to a highway. checked behind me and there was a small line of cars driving properly- waiting for me to get past the street so they could use the on ramp. as soon a i look straight again... BOOM! then i was flying/tumbling forward- for 50ft. mid tumble, i see this cargo van gun it and i started screaming at this fucker mid tumble. i stopped rolling and the first guy behind me stopped, asked if i was ok, then took off after the van. the guy in the van that hit me made about 400 yards away (just before the highway) before he had an anxiety attack, stopped his van, and fell out. turns out to be a taxi van/taxi driver and he got transported to the hospital for anxiety. i was pissed! that fucker almost got away. what he did was speed up to go around the 3 or so cars that were behind me in the right lane, then cut them all off to get on the on ramp and clipped my back wheel in the process. witnesses and cops say he must have been doing 45- he got a ticket for careless driving. anyway, beleive it or not, i didn't break any bones, just sprained my elbows, left knee and ankles and i've got mad road rash. been stickin to my sheets for days.

Wow

Submitted by rward325 on 04/08/2008.

I ride passed a Freeway off ramp like that everyday on my way to work. Thank god you are alive! I hate that part of my ride as it is during rush hour and school time and am waiting for some soccer mom in her SUV to clip me like that. The road is a dangerous place unfortunately!

I'm Not Normally Litigious But...

Submitted by gridplan on 01/06/2008.

...that's the kind of person I would have sued. I would've found the finest ambulance-chasing lawyer out there and really let him have it. I'm relieved you weren't hurt worse than you were. I'd never have guessed it by looking at your bike.

Why do people lose their minds?

Submitted by mastronaut on 10/21/2007.

When they're surrounded by 2 tons of steel?
Thank the higher powers you weren't killed!
I would be crying that my bike got so badly damaged,
(after I realised I was still alive)..
I hope his insurance is going to cover the replacement
cost at least. Good luck and a speedy recovery bro!
