I'm fine and the bike is fine. I was riding down the road toward the ferry docks when this lady in a Toyota Camery pulled out and tried to turn left right infront of me. I locked up the rear brakes and pulled the front as hard as I dared, (didn't want to lock it up too), and slid my right side across the front of her car.
After I came to a stop, I looked at her through the windshield and sure enough, she was on a cellphone.... She jumped out of the car in a panic and wanted to know if I was ok and my bike was ok. I told her I was fine and the bike looked good too, but her car took some damage. When I hit, I lifted my right leg to get it out of the way and my pedal hit her front license plate and ripped it and the holder off the bumper. It also tore the plastic on the bumper where the mount was. Probably the only time a MBer was hit by a car and the car was the only thing with damage! lol
She gave me her info just incase I was hurt or there was damage to my bike. I told her that she should pay more attention to whats going on around her and to get off the dang phone.
And the day started off so good......
