first of all, I am fine. concusion and bruises. i'll live. my bike is fairly lucky also seems to be major cosmetic damage..and that's it (broken left mirror, snapped left footpeg, amputated left turn signal, etc). This is the situation: I was going 40 in a 35..the van was on a sidestreet.. and pulled out as I was about one foot from the sidestreet. I'm well aware I shouldn't have been going 40 in a 35, I should have expected the van to be a douche...If people want to critique my riding skills thats cool, but it's not like i'm saying im perfect and the minivan should get it in the ass...im saying I got in a crash...that's all....
ps thanks for all the good wishes those of you who offered them also no, I didn't get any tickets... |

Funny thing is I dress pretty boring.....Just business-casual shlep most of the time........I suck at buying clothes and end up returning half the shit I buy. Had no fashion sense as a kid....... Wore highwater pants all the time, black belts with brown shoes or even white running shoes, white socks all the time Only reason I make so many comments about fashion is because it's my way of getting revenge against everyone who made fun of me as a kid

and my plans for the bike are to pick up more hours at work and slowly replace what needs to be replaced...it's gonna take me forever with work and school but at least I rode alot this summer...it'll get there I'll make sure for certain it's mechanically sound and take it from there |
