    Sorry for delay in posting, still working out insurance & whatnot. Thankfully minor physical injury - Spyder, different story. Five o’clock traffic & I’m bout 4 cars back from a red light when a Teen driving a white truck hit the red truck hard enough for it to hit me. Was towed to a city lot & I was able to ride home with an escort a few days later. Not street legal at the moment, license bracket destroyed among other “issues”.

    Still hopeful to make Goal & others. Won’t know till insurance & lawyers get done. Hope to see you out there soon

    Glad you're OK! Spyders can be repaired/replaced.

    2024 has not begun too smoothly where I live. Road anarchy has become unbelievable.

    otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

    I'm glad only your feelings and the spyder got hurt and that you are still all in one piece. Be sure to let us know how the insurance game comes out. Good, I hope.

    Sorry to hear this and feel for you as a fellow Ryder that was hit in the rear while at a light on the way to O.C. bikefest last Sept.

    I hope everything gets worked out, unfortunately you took a hit from a lot bigger vehicle than I did but you got lucky it was between you and the main driver that caused the accident.

    I was in the front of the line and got ejected from a small car that hit me lower and faster which turned my seat into a catapult.

    B i am so sorry to hear of your newest incident. I hope you are OK. You did say minor physical damage. After looking at your TBI injury I am amazed that you are with us and can function at all. I hope all checks out well and the kids insurance goesn't give you too big a hassel.

    Happy TRAils/NSD
