Oh, totally not cool. The road rash will go away, but cracked seat stays are forever.

I assume you’re running this through their insurance company? Was there a bike lane? I’m not sure what the legality is if there wasn’t. Even though the officer wouldn’t assign fault, this is a pretty small claim assuming you don’t have any real injuries, so maybe the insurance company will give in and write a check rather than hassle with figuring out who’s at fault.

You should have asked him for a back/neck message and a new bike!

I was wondering if anybody would pull the ‘What did you learn’ card. I learned not to screw with things 6x your weight.

A bit of an update. My back and neck are a bit down on their luck but nothing too bad still.

Yes the driver luckily stopped and gave me a ride home. I like to keep my enemies closer you see.

“What did you learn?” ~Dustin (Aug 7, 12:14 PM)

Just Joshin… Yikes! I read the post title and thought you were being silly. That really sucks. I hope you end up being ok, though your bike looks a little on the screwed side. Did the driver of the boatcar stop? We have a lot of bike races that go through the road out front of my place here, and it scares the hell out of me when they are going during rush hour. People down here are crazy when they get on the roads…
