My first collision of the year

Rode this morning with my normal ride partner......he was on my left headed slightly ahead into a small town. He said lets go straight I said sure we kicked to get through the intersection . there was a car on our right approaching but I thought we were fine...my ride partner did not. He yelled car and turned hard right in front of me. I slamed into his rear wheel with my front which skidded him around... then I did this out of control bucking bike thing that some how I did not kiss the pavement but ended up on the left side of the bike holding the right drop, bent over with my legs spread but standing in front of the stopped car. The driver was amused with the morning theatrics.

Boy was I glad to get that out of the way for the year.
