Yeah, it was just a very light brushing. If I were holding on the bars a little looser, I probably would have been fine, but because I was out of the saddle and climbing, if that's what you want to call it, I was gripping them hard. It happened to a friend of mine earlier this year, but he turned into the car which prevented him from crashing. The cop car wasn't going fast, actually I would put it at about 20MPH tops as it was just taking off at the light.

What really angers me is this. When I got to my brothers, I jumped into the pool to cool down. His wife then brought me a beer, which led to many more, causing me to not ride back to the campgrounds to finish my ride for the day Now my shoulders are so sun burned I can't even throw on a pair of bibs
