It was a right turning lane situation. There was construction at the beginning of the turning lane. As I was going around the concrete barrier, a car darted into the turning lane. I tried to slow and go on his left, but couldn't pull it off and went over the top of the car.

It's a move I've made a thousand times on a traditional bike, but I hadn't adapted to a fixed gear yet and I didn't make the proper reaction.

I messed the guy's car up pretty bad. Luckily the guy has a $300 deductible instead of a $500, so it's a little cheaper for me.

What happened? That sucks man, glad you're ok

EDIT: nm, heard what happened. Glad you're alright

DOUBLE EDIT: Woah woah woah, why are you paying for him cutting you off?

Cops came. Decided it was my fault. Issued me a citation, so I'm liable.

Were the cops there to see what transpired? I didn't think so. I'd talk to an attorney if I were you.

Over $300 I don't think it's worth it. I kinda agree it's my responsibility to get stopped in that situation anyway.

Someone just told me that I should expect the guy's insurance company to come after me for the total damage amount?

Anyone have any experience here that can confirm this?

I dislike the color of your wall.

Oh, burn.

Nice bike though, I would get cages, but that has been said.

FWIW, that picture is in my office at work.
