Hit by a car in GP today.

Well I was out doing one of my GP loops today when I got hit by a car.

I'm headed towards home before the little downhill where the construction starts. I see this idiot with his dog (yes on a leash) in the bike lane. I am following another guy. The guy infront of me has to swerve to avoid the dog and I swerve not to hit the guy in front of me. Well as I encroach the white line barely I get side swiped. Thank you very much. My brand new bike is f@#$ed. I'm bleeding my hand is busted. My left side looks like I got in a fight with a cheese grater. My gloves and hands are cut. The side of my head is scraped. (Thank God I was wearing a helmet).

So the azzhole has the nerve to tell me his dog has every right to be in the bike lane as much as I do.


WOW!

Thanks Peter for getting me home.

p.s. I have fresh road rash pics if anyone is interested.
