a Lexus....
It's a bad bad feeling to see it coming and not be able to do anything but wait for it to happen...






Sittin' in the southbound lane on genessee at atherton with my left blinker on ...oncoming traffic coming through the light.  No where to go and could see her bearing down on me (on her way to a soccer game). About all i could do was plant my left foot and lift my right leg and hold on...  The bag just friggin' exploded (it's only 36 degrees today).  
I suppose i'm lucky it was just a bag and a blinker as it could easily have been my right leg taken off at the knee or thrown me into oncoming traffic.

Anyhow, I hope this is my 1 for the season and hope it serves as a reminder that the cagers are not [/i]looking for bikers this early in the season.  
I think i will be getting a safety-yellow vest....

I know a handful of people that can fix your bike but very few places to get a new leg, glad you are OK

Holy Crap! That would absolutely suck!  Good that your leg remains attached but it is a shame to see such a sharp bike banged up..
