The local bike shops around here have been good about telling me what it will cost for replacement parts/labor, so I'll likely handle the property claim myself. No need to hire an attorney for what will be a straightforward transaction - We know what's been damaged, and what it takes to replace them. I need to check out the Garmin on another bike to make sure it still works OK, but the MiNewt's work fine. The AirZound doesn't work anymore, and the SuperFlash on the back is kaput. Front fender is trashed, and the fork-mounted lights are, too. So, I've got a spreadsheet with everything, and also a pic of the bike in it's "before" condition, so I don't have much concern there. (It'll cost less to replace everything than it will to fix his car).

I got a quote for labor for installing all the accessories, so I'll probably submit those quotes in a few days so I can set a budget for a replacement bike once I get cleared for riding.

How am I feeling? Still sore - at my first PT appt., they took some measurements - I'm tilted to one side from the muscle spasms, and can't reach any further than my knees (19" from the floor). The sides are worse - 22" and 23" from the floor, and bending in any direction is a chore. They finished up with electrical stimulation (not nearly as fun as it sounds), and lots of heat. I get 4 weeks of this, and will hopefully get cleared for riding by 9/1. We'll see what the doc says.
