On reflection, its almost like I was in a protective envelope. It still hurts me to sit in a hard chair. I washed the bike yesterday and it looks like it was never touched. I keep looking for hairline cracks in the carbon frame but have not found any. The headlight on my bike is blinding at night. The boars were obviously startled and running. My guess is that they were trying to get away from the blinding light and never really saw me.
