I've turned my PD loss into his insurance company. It includes a list of the accessories installed on the bike, a quote from the bike shop to replace the bike, and a quote from where I purchased many of the accessories for replacing and/or moving what can be moved from one bike to the other.

As far as the court date, it's coming up, and I plan to be there with my GPS evidence - just in case he claims that I rode out in front of him. I'm not listing the specific court date or info, just in case his insurance company or lawyer is using Google to find out what's being said about the case.

As far as suing, I have two years from the date of the accident to file any personal injury claim, so for right now, I'm turning my bills into my own insurer, since I have MedPay coverage with them. I'm keeping copies of EVERYTHING, and documenting everything. I even bought a copy of "Bicycling and the Law", and am reading through that to make sure I'm not missing anything.

BTW, I saw his car the other day - it's been completely repaired. My bike is sitting in pieces on my garage floor, and I've not been able to ride for a month.
