i just knocked some dude out and it was awesome.
heres the story. rolling west on brady towards holton. im moving faster than traffic like normal on brady. at about Casablanca's a honda svr decides to pull a Uturn infront of me with out looking over her shoulder. since the only way to go was infront of her i did and smacked her hood which made her stop(luckily). i ride to the light and stop a second later i hear someone yelling "you're ****ing crazy you almost got your self killed you dumbass!" i replied that she should have looked where she was going and it wouldnt have happened. then he called me a ****ed up doped head who needs to lay off the drugs, for some reason that got me up set so i roll towards him to correct him self and to calm the **** down. he says somthing about getting out of the car and proceeds to, which is immediately met with my foot to kick his door back in. this angers him more. as i am falling off my bike i leap off and see him getting out again. this time the contact was not my foot his door, it was his face and my fist. all i saw after that was him grasp his nose and some red. got on my bike and rode away.

it sucks to be in pain, it sucks to lose your bike, i'm glad to hear you're alive, and now you get to put a new bike together, think of the fun, since you're probably not supposed to ride while you heal you can fill your days shopping for parts, then when insurance comes through with a big fat check(and it will be big and fat) you'll be set

Man that sucks.. I hate when people reck my stuff. And when one of those things is my body, that is even worse. So I am sorry.
I have been hit twice. Hit and runs at that. Neither time was I hurt but still knocked me off my bike at like 25 MPH or so. tocoed my rim once. I always stay on non' busy streets and stuff, but I am sure that isn't going to help me. lol.
At anyrate I am sorry to hear that. I hope you have a speedie' recoverie.
Eric...... schnayke for short.

Make sure to get some good quotes. We give new replacement value when we do crash quotes. Be sure to include everything, clothes, shoes, etc.
It does look like you have the dismount down, except you should chose something besides the face for the landing. Hope you heal up quick and either have no scars ar lots of scars depending on your taste.

oh, and I have three implants... they are all on the side of my mouth though. i got them when i had my wisdom teeth taken out so i luckily was unconscious. they are good stuff. my friend steve took a fall on his bike about a year ago and had an implant put in the front of his mouth which ws rejected by his body and the bone wouldn't accept the post so he had to have it removed recently.
i have implants because i never grew adult teeth in three places. two of those places still had baby teeth which the doc thought would be easy to pull, but it turned out that they had fused to my jawbone. to get them out he had to clamp down and rock them back and forth until the bone connecting them began to crack and break. hearing that noise in my skull almost made the vomit
