"I am working to modify behavior. It seemed like both time I was hit was over 25 MPH on busy roads... hmmm trend. I will have to save the crazy dash to the city line type rides for group rides and deserted roads. I guess even at 6'6" on a 63 cm bike I am invisable. You just can not stop fast enough on a road bike in these places."
and "Hit car...again"
Sounds a lil' bit like you are taking blame, and you never know who is reading the Forums.
That is true, of course the words are true. I should be more careful in planning my words... It was thrown in my face at my ride after the accident, it is your fault, modify behavior, etc. It is easy to see fault in others but it is looking at yourself that you see things you would never have seen before.
The question falls on should I be doing 25+ MPH on busy roads... and if doing that puts me at fault in an accident...
FYI I went to the doctor this morning and got an xray, everything looks fine, a bad sprain they think. I need to come back in a few weeks and have it rechecked. The doctors said I can return to normal riding once the pain goes away... I hope it is fully normal soon...
Live and learn...
