Yup, if it had been any other intersection I would have had asked her to call or called them myself. But at this particular intersection I've been aware of the danger and normally dealt with it carefully. The first words out of my mouth were "Stupid bike2math, you knew better than that!" Damage to the bike amounts to a new rack, and two wheels in need of truing, I would guess at or near 100 dollars.

To top it off I was late (had a mechanical glitch earlier in the ride that had me stopped for 10 minutes) and before I declined her offer to call the police I checked that my knees, hips, back, and neck hadn't taken the impact. It appears my bike took the hit. \begin{petsbike} good steel steed, good. \end{petsbike}
