Bike Forums - Today I:

Just got hit on the kilo. Guy cut me off merging into the right most lane, clipped my front wheel. No helmet, luckily put me in the bushes and not into the tarmac. Hit and Run, only car around. He'll get his. Couple scratches, nothing bad.

Front wheel is out of true, cant tell if bent or not, I'll throw it on the truing stand in a sec. Fork didn't bend. Bartape got scuffed up.

Should be alright. sigh. I hate people.

Harsh, man. Glad you're not too bad off but still that sucks ass.

And, Today I update : just ordered a pitcher of water + pint of best beer ever. Oh, and didn't reclaim KOM. Didn't register. Must've gone off piste.

I thought I might see bikerowave out there. Wasn't looking too hard, but I did see free repair stands at every hub.

There's always next time.

The route was pretty chill, except through downtown. Better to just get off the bike and walk it since every signal was stop and go. I didn't realize the 4th street bridge was so hilly either. Can't wait until the next one.

Thanks guys.

The wheel is back in true, didn't bend luckily. rewrapped my bars with the rest of the microtex I originally used(coolest thing about a half wrap). Bar's have some pretty deep scratches though.

Looks good as new actually.

I'm not sure where the booth was. I worked our booth last time or the time before, which was by city hall, and it was stupid busy.

Nagrom_ <--- deathproof. glad you're ok.

i love a Chelsea cut on a girl. ah, my 2-Tone days. but, it's kinda like a redhead (which i'm married to) in that it's a challenge -and- a warning. proceed with caution.
