Sorry to here. Glad it's only damage to the rear wheel and not yourself. Or your bike. AS others have said, pursure this as far as possible and hound the police to get on it.

Drunk or college student mass-hole driver? I'm really sorry to hear that Henry. Bring this f*cker down hard. Get on it as soon as possible.

Keep that rim and when you find out where the driver lives, throw the rim through his window w/ a note saying, "See you in court mother****er!"

Goodluck finding the guy. I'm on the hunt as well in Boston having been doored a few days ago. In my case the bike survived but the bones in my hand didn't. Atleast the guy was nice enough to drive me to the hospital before bailing without leaving his information. He seemed so honest i never bothered to write down his plate ... now I wish I had.

Henry, it's Jp, I voted for your bike, and I'm sorry that happened.
**** man, that sucks. I'm going to be looking for this car now, we should find it and give it a sunroof.
message me, and I'll give you my phone number, we'll find the car and take care of some business before I move to philly.

if the police arent proactive you could pull someones info from their plate (or vin) for ~20 bux
dont know how the dps/dmv will comply with only partial plate and using car description to narrow it down, though
