It's scary how something so sudden could have such lasting effects. Six months later, you've got $10,000 in bills and still aren't back to where you were, physically, the day before the accident. Kind of makes me reevaluate riding in general.
Remember, accidents can happen in any transportation means. You could be driving and get hit by a drunk, but that shouldn't discourage one from driving again. The same w/ biking, be it for leisure or commuting.
